I guess I'm just happier seeing Lego targetted at younger kids. Which, as
you said earlier, directly contradicts my interest in Mindstorms. I guess
I'm just a bloke full of contradictions 8?)
However, I'd be interested to see how Lego makes a DCC system as easy to
program & use as the programming system that comes with the RCX (not that
*I* use it much, but I've seen young kids really getting into it). Would
they just make different receivers for different jobs? How would they assign
device ids? Maybe a switch on each device? I dunno, but it's gotta be
something that's fairly versatile & can easily be done by young kids.
