Mindstorms' Next Generation

davey23sol writes: "MSNBC has a 2.0 review of Lego Mindstorms here. Looks like they have put in an easier programming system for users, touch and light sensors, and some other stuff. The transmitters for the infrared transmitters are now USB instead of serial, too. The new system will be $200, and if you have Mindstorms now the upgrade will just be $20. It should all be available this month. I can't wait to get one (never got around to getting my Mindstorms kit)." This review may not go into $200 worth of depth, so I look forward to more detailed reader reviews (and more pictures) when this is widely available :)

MSNBC Rendering for This Article is Crap

[idonotexist]

Any other non-IE users experiencing problems with the rendering of this page? I'm using Mozilla. First, the menu bar is horizontal across the screen and streches way beyond my screen size (about +65%). Next, The first part of the article resides on the far right, which I have to scroll (majorly) to get to. Then, the remainer of the article resides to the far left, which I must scroll to after reading the first top of the article on the far right. This is very non-user-friendly, and I doubt Jakob Nielson would be happy with this article's usability and readability.

Is this an IE-preferred-only-please article? I'm interested in this subject, but really can't read much of it under these conditions. Perhaps this story is elsewhere?
