Robolab 2.0 is out, and the software is much improved. Robolab 2.0 now supports
more programming structures, more sensors (sound, ph, etc.), and the RCX
datalogging feature. In my opinion 2.0 now compares very favorably to nqc.
Robolab 2.0 is the best graphical environment for programming the RCX.

About upgrading 1.5: Robolab 2.0 consists of two parts, programmer and
investigator. Programmer is the upgraded 1.5 software you are familiar with,
and investigator is the feature that supports datalogging. Pitsco sells the
investigator package separately from the full Robolab 2.0 version, for half the
price. Yet neither Pitsco nor Dacta knows if adding the investigator to 1.5
will also provide the fixes and enhancements for programmer. I ordered
investigator, and after seven weeks Pitsco shipped me the full version because
they could not get the investigator only upgrade.

There are a few bugs in Robolab 2.0, but not as many as there were in 1.0. This
software is ready for prime time.
