Is Lego MindStorms a good choice for basic robotics development?

Asked 2009-04-18T21:05:05.497

I would like to learn how to write software for controlling robots.

Is Lego MindStorms a good choice for this? Are there better alternatives?

I'd prefer MindStorms, but after reading a couple of articles I get the impression that Lego has stopped research and development of MindStorms.

What are your suggestions?

Yes, Lego Mindstorms is great, but don't use the default LabView G language interface to do your programming.

Use something more advanced like LeJos.
