(...) Hi Jonathan, Kekoa Proudfoot has a very detailed page about the RCX internals here (URL) it's a large page - there's *lots* of info there! ROSCO (23 years ago, 15-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

|

Since there are projects like legos (or whatever its called now) that replace the firmware of the RCX, there must be some hardware documentation out there. What processor does it use? What other hardware is in that box? Memory maps? (23 years ago, 15-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

I personally think the objections to Bionicle here is the storyline side, not the building side. The storyline just has little interest in those of us who are not into the fantasy aspect of LEGO. I have to admit having the same feeling reading some (...) (23 years ago, 14-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)
