Man, this is fantastic. Since moving over to OS X about a year and a
half ago, I've been ignoring my RCX (retired the tired/crash prone PC
forever!! Running Linux now though) and haven't played with it for lack
of a development environment for OS X.
I just stumbled across this thread and I am most grateful. Keep up the
great work. I've just downloaded the H8000 Compiler and Tools package
and can't wait to play with them. BTW, is there a working USB IR Tower
application available yet?
Thanks again,
Dave Chen
