Listening to: What Time Is Love (LP Mix) - The KLF

Ars Technica have put together a great review of the Lego NXT product… it does look very very cool:

The good:

• Almost 600 pieces
• Sensors that actually work
• Programming system easy enough to let Grandma build a ‘bot
• The X factor: fun to use

The bad:

• You can link four robots, but it will cost you $1,000
• Three motors don’t go far when your robots can drive
• Little available memory in the NXT brick
• Does not include a death ray

The ugly:

• The meals I would have missed as a child while playing with this
