(Right now there are about eight supported systems, including MindStorms and the iRobot Create, but I suspect this will grow.)
It's more complicated and powerful than MPLAB and EasyC by far. There really is no reason why any robot couldn't be controlled using it. I think the most flexibility comes from running it within the robot itself. A speaker from Microsoft was actually controlling a robot that was running MSRS from a web browser. He showed how you can start and stop any subroutine using any computer that has a webrowser (With emphasis on any webrowser).
