Lego Mindstorms
So recently, I had this odd dream yesterday where I was in this retail store aisle that had a bunch of discontinue and old sets like the Toa Mata; all at cheap prices. Yeah, I realized that was only a dream and it more than likely that stuff like that would of went up in value. But well, it reminder me of how I always admired the LEGO Mindstorms sets and how I would of liked to have been able to get one myself (I was in a LEGO Robotics Club when I was in middle school and we were often enter the kickoff to competition of the FIRST LEGO League's challenge. We never got past there though at least during my time with the club.).
So then, I started thinking, "Well, I do have some money that I could use to get the latest Mindstorms set. Maybe I should do it." I am still kind of weary about the idea though. Not because I don't think it would be worth cash, but rather more of that I won't know how to program it as well as I did with the RCX models (I was a programmer/chief sorter on the team.). Hm...I could consider the idea of looking for an older model. Although that idea has its cons too, especially considering I doubt I could run the programming program on my Window Vista computer.
What do you think I should do?
