I there any way of getting this up and running on an old Mac with serial ports ?

No chance. The camera is USB.

If the mac has pci slots you can install a USB card. this , of course doesnt
mean the software will work but you can add USB ports to "some" older macs. I am
using a usb/firewire orange micro card in my 7500 power mac ( requires OS 8.6 or
greater)

(...) The included software is Windows only. I don't know if it could be tricked into working under Virtual PC or not. Just from the physical design of the camera though, I would think Lego must have a Mac version in the works. (24 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
