Can anyone tell me what the book Robot Builders Bonanza : 99 Inexpensive 
Robotics Projects written by McComb is like? As the only way I can get it 
is through a money up front order form. 

Has it got any projects that interface with the computer? 
Is there any that have many motors or servos driving at once?

How inexpensive are the projects? 


Now another question; If a computer linked robot uses the serial port is it 
possible to drive two motors simultaneously or do you have to use the 
parallel port for these actions. 

Thanks
