I can learn. :)

In high school I worked with a program in a Principles of Engineering class that had a similar layout to this one. It was a lot simpler with a more "drag and drop" approach to programming a defined set of parts. But, I think I can work with this.

I'm seriously tempted to get a bunch of this stuff to amuse me over the summer.

Only problem is it's a bit expensive. But then it is LEGO.
