I bought one of those four years ago (long before Mindstorms).  It's an
absolutely wonderful unit - considerably better than the RCX, Scout, etc.
The only downside is that it must be tethered to a PC (though you could buy
a wireless serial modem....).  The software for it is considerably better
than that for the RCX.  It's a regular text-based language and allows you to
build basic GUIs (a very useful feature).  I highly recommend buying it.  If
you don't get the software with it, you can buy a copy from Pitsco-Dacta.  I
believe it's $30.

Hello,

I have been offered a Lego Dacta/Robolab control unit which
must be attached to the serial port on a PC. The unit has
8 input and 8 output. There are no software with this unit.
Anybody know what software I need to use this unit and if
any of it is freeware.
