TabletPC Software Install
Form groups of 3 or 4 containing people from all 3 teams from the paper
prototyping assignment. As a team, work together to efficiently and
sensibly install the following software on each TabletPC. Devise a
checklist to ensure that the software is installed properly. Please
work with these machines "generically" at first. Once they are set up
we will assign them to individuals. Individuals will be asked to use
IDs which match to their real names or Linux CS accounts.
All the software we are installing is free!
