Great LEGO project, I'm hoping they release the code - "Introducing GameByEmail's Dice-O-Matic. Made from Legos, a USB camera, and a bit of software, it's a home-grown, dice-rolling monster. Don't let it's rickety looks deceive you; this puppy can easily crank out the 20,000 rolls a day consumed by GamesByEmail. In fact, at full speed it averages almost one roll a second, well over 80,000 a day!." [via] Link.

Great idea! I do have a few questions though. Do you use the RCX brick to control the dice rolling machine? And if so how do you get .net programming to talk to the RCX brick? Thanks.

LEGOs what? There's and apostrophe and a word missing in the headline.
(utterly confused, damn you English language)
