They are now going to port to BeOS & MacOS while a Uni is porting it to Linux.

They cost ~£150 (or atlest thats how much I paied when they first came out)
They are pritty cool, and by default you can make some niffty stuff (like RADAR's). See the website, or the back of the box for actual content.
You need a serial port (Mac users think USB to serial port atapter).
To develop "applications" for them, either use
The Stuff That They Come With (crappy, aimmed for kids)
VB, or other OCX-enabled Windows Delopement System
Not Quite C, aviable on most plateforms, including UNIX (and alikes (Linux)), Win32, BeOS and MacOS. As the auther of the BeOS port, I can say it's piss easy to port if you need to.
LegOS, A miniOS for the RCX, looks pritty darn cool.
Have you seen the direction of Media, (look at Apple's Quick Time or Real Player, I could easly see MS putting "valued extra content (exe)" in video's soon, some MP3's already include HTML pages.
Then you have the other kind of spoofing, the way Outlook Viruses spread not to long ago, set it's MIME type to audio/mp3 and it's extention of.exe, the device downloads it, see the MIME type and executes it, beliving it to be safe, but exectues it based on the extention, hence killing your system. Plus you have "social engenering" spread trogons (like the newer Outlook viruses).
mlk, only owns legal MP3's and real player tunes, and proud of it.
(Suggesting something thats not Linux, this will kill my Karma)
Have you seen/considered SavaJE, a Java2SE OS, while it's not X, I've seen X for Java. It makes me wayy to tempted to nip into the local CashConverters and pick up a netBook...
Could could still use it for music, afterall a iPAQ is only 64Mb, I'd only need a few hunderd to back up my music colection, and I'm not going to swap them manually;-)
if I replaced the "tape drive" with a crayon, and the set of tapes with Index Cards, I could use it as a redunt "CowboyNeal w/Index Cards and a Crayon"...
But the java compiler itself is SLOOW javac is a java application (hence why its slow when pit against native compiler). I would be intersting to see the speed increase if GGJ'ed first.
Slashdot Mirror
They I think this the next stag of the experement, dumping 100 bottles of red wine into the tank.
If that does not get the sharks going, then there is something very wrong with the boy-sharks...
Valintines day is not about lovers, it's about send cards out to people your'd like have as lovers.
Bloody Commercialism making me spend £1.30 on a card.
I wish you both a happy life together.
Its called "Night Systems Admin"
;-)
Do no work, play games all night
/mlk
it's slowwww thou.
mlk, does not use illegal MP3's, but rips his CD's for "easy of use".
they have, the first version is for win32.

leJOS, Java RCX and tinyVM for Java based interfaces.
mlk
getting shat on even more...
Noticed ;-)
;-)
It only adds to the fun of it
mlk
Doom as a tool for system administration Ohhh yeah baby! ;-)
woot, the UK is not first world....

mlk (happy Revo owner)
Yeah for "lets ignore the US market" :(
mlk, a happy Revo user, that ill not move on till there is a nice sized keyboard device...
Considering the it use to take to get from one end of the planet to the other, three days to get into space is nothing.

bah, it does not do the lot in the RCX's :(
The server's don't come with any of that, plus a "lesser" g/c.
(but many more pennys!)
My pref is to have a "user manual" (like the pdf) and the "programmer docs", not both superglued into one.
;-)
Also, paraphased from the artical building a beowolf-app (for apple) is simply a matter of writing a multi-proccessor-enabled app[1] and recompiling!
mlk
[1] Which, coming from a BeOS world, all good apps should be.
The newer SPARCs can do this.
are you male or female?
If female, woot, C sucks, shit I mean Java Sucks!!!
As does DE.
nope, you have .class files for people who do not use the platform[s] ou have nativly compiled to.
I code in Java as I like the language and API set more than I like the XPness of it.
