Many of you probably saw the rumor that was
posted in another thread that the new RC was to be an NI device that is programmed using LabView. The poster later recanted that statement, but it brings up an interesting topic.
I know there are already several other threads on the new RC, but I'd like to discuss something more specific in this thread. I am curious about how would you here on CD would feel about an RC that required the use of LabView to program it. I have a strong opinion on this subject myself, but I won't go in to that right now. I would, however, like to know how the rest of the FIRST community would feel about that option (well, at least how the "people-who-post-on-CD" community feels anyway).
Tell us what you think the pros and cons are, tell us why you like or dislike the idea. Tell us if you have first-hand experience with LabView or if you're basing your opinions on second-hand information or just what you think you know about it (it's OK if you don't have experience with it, but I think it's important to note what your opinions are based on).
Anyway, I hope this might generate some interesting conversation.
