Pitsco told me that the new RoboLab 2.5 CDROM will still support the old
serial port IR tower with RCX 1.0.  Other than just the USB support does
anyone know what benefits RoboLab 2.5 offers with the new USB IR tower and
RCX 2.0?

According to the one page catalog addition I received:

"ROBOLAB 2.5 packs all the benefits of earlier version including Pilot,
Inventor, Programmer, and Investigator levels, is USB compatible (with the
new USB tower), and works with the Control Lab interface box.  Data loggin
has never been so easy."

Also:

"NEW FEATURES AND FUNCTIONALITY IN ROBOLAB 2.5
* Supports USB
* Functions with Control Lab interface box
* Completes wiring automatically
* Supports standard digital cameras (PC and Mac), including the LEGO camera
* Improves remote Internet control
* Displays camera image while programming
* Incorporates music through piano player (download music or create your own)
* Processes images
* Uses camera as sensor"

At $59 it sounds tempting.
