I wonder why it needs a specific operating system, the scoring is flash based. It should run on any OS.

The flash is only for the clock and scoring that will show up on the screen that the audience will see. I dont know the TacOps (scoring system) was designed in, but it is something that would look like a Microsoft Access system. All I know is that it is a very easy system to use and it was ran on the FreeOS, or whatever it's called. When we reserved our field we were told that it would come with everything that was present including the whole TacOps system, minus except the PDA's or printer, which were provided by NASA. I'm not worried at this point for IRI, but I will be sure that we're going to have everything that we need. :]

Maybe I will find time to create a white paper on field setup! Since we are the first team recieving a field from FIRST this year!

I am sure many teams would like to know exactly what they need to run their event!

I know that we at Team 1086 whom is running the 1st annunal ROSi(Richmond Off-Season Invitation) would really like to know what exactly comes with the FIELD and what we will need. We are getting our Field I believe from NASA, but we dont know exactly what we are getting. I think the guy that is letting us borrow it said that we will have everything but the scoring system. I could be wrong, but im not sure. I know that we would still like to know everything that would be needed for setting up the field and the TacOps, both hardware and software. If there is a white paper that would be nice, or if someone could tell me wut it is that would be great also. You can get to me at mike_obrien_drhs@yahoo.com or IM on AIM at IrishMan 4937 , thanks in advance.
