Hi Folks, Could someone please tell me if Lego Mindstorms works with Windows 95 ? The Lego Web site says that it works with Windows 98 BUT NOT with 2000/NT. Nothing about 95. Please help. Harpreet ======== (22 years ago, 2-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi Ralph, (...) Thank you very much :-) (...) I gave it a look and so I've just released the new version of my Brick's Music Studio that supports pbForth.

The new 2.1.4 Version of pbForth has a minor fix that affected programmers using the MARKER word. I recommend you get the new 2.1.2 GUI while you're at it because it is less agressive in stripping comments when uploading scripts. This was causing (...)

I'd be happy with a good "official" LEGO SONAR sensor and a fixed version of the LEGO Rotation Sensor (without the lost "clicks" bug) On the RCX side, I'd like a RCX 3.0 with 6+ sensor inputs and more outputs (and more RAM.
