Dacta Control Lab Software
hypertalking replied to Dazmundo's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I also use it on a PowerBook 100 :-) Archive.org's search is inscrutable to me, so I had to Google "Vintage Lego Robotics archive.org", this is the link if useful for anyone else who also struggles with their search! This is great! I also got a copy of this VHS around 6 months ago, and it's been sat on a shelf waiting for me to digitise and upload it. Not sure there's much point now! I may check it and see if I can get a better quality digitisation, but I doubt it. Oh hi! Thanks for the mention :) Yes it was really frustrating how damaged that tape was at the beginning - it may even have been from my first attempt to digitise it. A friend lent me a pro SVHS tape deck to do it on, but turned out it had some major issues and may have caused the damage :( Not sure. Anyway, I managed to recover as much as I could on a different tape deck. Trying to decide if it's worth digitising my other Control Lab tape in light of this upload. -

This is great info. I love that you're using an Amiga ha. I have a 500+ with a 68020 accelerator and CF slots, but never emulated a Mac on it. When you have the Internet Archive link please do post it, I'm itching to have a go :) -

Alex this is fantastic news! Your BrickLink alerts are clearly better than mine :) Good luck with the imaging - be very careful. Please do test the floppy drive with disks you can afford to 'lose' before putting in the Control Lab disks! I'm very very excited. It's clearly incredibly hard to find software. Thanks! -

I've been in touch directly with someone at LCSI, who created the Dacta Control Lab software. They searched their storage but only turned up 5.25" floppy disks for the Apple II version of TC Logo, not the Control Lab software for Macintosh unfortunately. -

Hi Chris, I'm looking for the same. No luck so far. I've only turned up Control Lab 1.0 and 1.2 for MS-DOS or Windows. I've asked on one Macintosh forum and I'm going to keep looking. If I find it I'll post here again :)
