Hi Aaron -
My son is 12. He is interested in learning programming - but at this
point I'd be happy just to get the NXT working! :)
I was under the impression that I had to install the library filters, and
the Java software just for him to get started which is how I ended up where I
am. Oh well. Live and learn! At this point I'd just like to get the NXT
back to a working state. I did try to flash the firm where, but now there is
no menu, and the NXT will beep. Not sure what steps I need to take to get
the NXT so that it will work with the software that comes with it.
Any guidance will be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Robin

Robin -
How old is your son? Is he interested in programming? How did you
hear about lejos?
Have you been able to get the software that came with the kit to work?
There are some great sample applications that come with the kit.
We're all glad to help, just drop a line on the list.
Cheers,
Aaron R>
