Just acquired Lego Mindstorms NXT 8527

I know this has been out for a few years, but I have to admit.  It is truly amazing what a person can program/build.  I grew up with Lego's and loved them.  It turms out that I still love them!!  I think that they created Mindstorms for the adults that loved Lego's back when they were a child.  You know...
