Thanks Ralph, this is great news. I just got the new USB tower, and considering my revived interest for pbForth your new version arrives really at the right time. What IMHO would really boost the spreading of pbForth, is the availability of some (...) (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Hi Kenny, Spirit.ocx can only be used with the serial tower. RIS 2.0 contains a USB-tower, so spirit.ocx doesn't work anymore. Have a look at this message. (URL) a replacement for spirit.ocx is announced. Regards, Rainer (23 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hello.. I've just upgraded my RIS 1.0 to version 2.0 and it appears Lego have stopped using the Spirit.ocx. I'm a little confused, I've used the spirit.ocx within Macromedia Director in the past to write interfaces and programs to control my RCX. (...) (23 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) The RCX 1.0 in RIS 1.0 has a jack, the RCX 1.0 in RIS 1.5 doesn't (unfortunately, I have two of them). The 2.0 on the RCX 2.0 is purely for decoration, there's no user visible difference whatsoever to the RCX 1.0 without the jack.

Hi Johnathan, Aside from some very minor changes in the parts and the RIS software, the only difference between kits is the RCX 1.0 has an AC jack, which comes in handy for stationary robots like robotic arms or sorting machines. I've heard that the (...) (23 years ago, 29-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) That didn't change. (...) 2.0 software is better (...) didn't change (...) Nothing. (...) I don't think there's a 1.0 downgrade option :-), I think the difference is only a few pieces. You can compute the set difference from the Peeron (...) (23 years ago, 29-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
