I`ve noticed that LEGO is used a lot for low end robots. Could someone give me
and idea of benefits/disadvantages of LEGO. Do people glue them together or
is prototyping and quick redesign the point. What's the upper end of capability
like. Can real things be done or is LEGO just for play/teaching? Any feedback
from people with real experience would be appreciated. As usual I will summarize
if I get enough general interest replies. Use your own judgement about mail
or post.

Regards
