This is entirely true. I've been playing with my vex kit since april and programming soleley in Mplab. Just use the same install cd that comes in the KOP at kickoff.

Also, Any pwm based sensor will work. Because vex has male inputs, you'll have to wire a short male to male pwm cable to use as an adapter for non vex sensors.
