* Write a blog post about your experiences. What was hard? What did you learn that you didn't know before? How would you do it differently next time? What advice would you give others trying this?

* In order to build with another operating system, consider creating a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_machine virtual machine] so that you don't wreck your main operating system. You can use Sun's [http://www.virtualbox.org/ Virtual Box], [http://www.vmware.com/products/player/ VMWare Player], [http://wubi-installer.org/index.php Wubi], or many others. All are free, and can be used to host Windows/Linux.
* The first floor of TEL has a research area with [[CDOT Development Systems|fast build machines]]. These machines are there for you to use. Your professor will show you where and how to access them.
