"This summer I taught a summer workshop on the
Mindstorms NXT robotics system. I have to say that
out of all of the kits available this one is the
most cost effective and fun kit to use for robotics
learning. It was so easy to teach the 8-15 year old
students how to quickly build and program the
examples provided in the kit, the kids really
enjoyed the ShooterBot build."

"I first
encountered the MINDSTORMS
series in 2001 when I bought
the Robotics Invention System
1.5 out of curiosity. Since
then, I've purchased and used
numerous MINDSTORMS sets,
written two MINDSTORMS books,
developed and taught a LEGO
robotics course, and given LEGO
presentations. So when I heard
that LEGO was releasing the NXT
2.0 set in summer/fall 2009, I
was curious to discover how
LEGO would improve its flagship
product. After finally getting
my hands on a 2.0 set, I've
been busy building,
programming, and analyzing the
kit's features. And I think
this is the best MINDSTORMS set
to date. ... In sum, the NXT
2.0 set is a great toolset for
any robotics enthusiast and a
must-have for MINDSTORMS fans."

"I
bought this kit instead of
sending my son to computer camp
this summer. He has enjoyed
creating robots with the Lego
Mindstorm NXT 2.0 more than the
computer camp he went to last
summer. The Mindstorm has
allowed him to create and
program his own robots. This
has kept him busy almost every
day since he received the
kit."
"This
summer I taught a summer
workshop on the Mindstorms NXT
robotics system. I have to say
that out of all of the kits
available this one is the most
cost effective and fun kit to
use for robotics learning. It
was so easy to teach the 8-15
year old students how to
quickly build and program the
examples provided in the kit,
the kids really enjoyed the
ShooterBot build."
"I
agree that NXT 2.0 (as apposed
to NXT 1.0) was not improved on
the hardware side apart form a
new Color. I think this is
great. Why? All NXT 2.0 sets
are still compatible with the
NXT 1.0 sets, simply because
they use the same intelligent
brick. This way, existing users
can upgrade without throwing
their old system away.
Furthermore, all the useful
information made up by the
community for NXT 1.0, is still
just as valuable for NXT
2.0."
