That IS cool. Now the problem is to figure out if this new feature
was implemented using the exisiting ROM or if the entry points have
changed.
Has anybody tried to run legOS or pbForth on the new RCX 2.0?
(Maybe I can use this as an excuse to buy one...)
If so, then we need to do a heck of a lot of work to get legOS, pbForth, and
other replacement firmware to play nicely with the RCX....
