Victor,

I am especially enamored with your primary colored/coloured workbench, it
adds a certain flair of "I mean business in a Computer Nerd way!"

Unfortunately there's no crossover between RCX and Newton.

My advice, get yourself and old cheap laptop, install a text editor and Not
Quite C, bingo: there's your RCX development platform :)

Really old photo of me at the 5th annual rtlToronto robotics event, hacking
NQC code on my old AST Ascentia P100 laptop in the middle of the
competition:
