LEGO Retail Directions On-line
Several folks with the educational version have asked for the instructions for Spike, Alpha Rex, etc., since these do not come in that set. Well, LEGO Education has posted them! Take a look over here:

Not only do I just prefer printed instructions; but they stay comptaible longer (LEGOLAND designers keep all their models plans on paper for that very reason). I own the older "cybermaster" set and it doesn't have any printed instructions at all, while you're lucky if you manage to have the crappy software run on a recent windows version.
Well, at least the NXT has tribot on paper, but I sure wished they had at least included some kind of pdf version on the CD.
Well I guess it's a wish granted now. Great!!
You should be able to print those.
I took a NXT kit on a long weekend holiday with some friends recently. (13 of us in a big 15th century house.)
On the first evening a couple of guys joined me in building the Tribot from the book. We tried the demo program, and then attached the other sensors.
However nobody much played with it after that. To have printed instructions for another model would have been great inspiration.
There were several problems with using my laptop: it had the educational software installed, (so no instructions for the other models); leaving it unattended is a bit uncomfortable with various private files on it; the stone floor is quite a scary thing for a laptop.
Acrobat pdf files would have been okay too, as there were quite a few of us with PDAs or phones that could show them.
