Requirements
------------
-You need a Maple board, a Mini-B USB cable, and root (or
-Administrator) access to your computer. We assume you've had success
-with the IDE on your machine (this is important on Windows, as this
-document doesn't cover :ref:`driver installation
-<maple-ide-install-windows-drivers>`).
-
-On Linux and OS X, you need to know how to use a shell and edit your
-shell startup script (.bashrc, .tcshrc, etc.). (The Windows
-instructions are more detailed, since we assume many Windows users
-will be newer to the Unix shell). Some experience using `GCC
-<http://gcc.gnu.org/>`_ and `make
