What Windows operating systems does Robolab work with, and can I still use the infrared transmission tower to load the program onto the RCX brick?

The application isn't standalone which means you can't just run it. It requires another application because it has some VI files and based on my knowledge I know that VI files are used by the LabVIEW product. The software will run on practically all versions of Windows as long as the support platform where you load it is also compatible with the operating system currently installed.
I have an interest to buy Robolab 2.9, but I don't know how. I have an old version of Robolab (2.5.4), but the new version is suited for me. Can you give some info?

ROBOLAB doesn't appear to be on a payment plan. The official website lists version 2.9.4d as being available for downloading. Head to the page and you can download the application for free. Keep in mind that you still need LabVIEW in order to load the VI files.
On the official page, there are also instructions on how to install it properly. For the zipped versions (PC & Mac), extraction is not necessary as you can load the packages as they are.
