I downloaded that too and it should be a great introduction to vxworks and the Wind River Workbench, especially with the simulator.

I'm not sure if Wind River is creating a custom workbench for FIRST, but it would be great if they could get a full version of the workbench to teams before kickoff so we can familiarize ourselves with it. The Eclipse plugin for the workbench seems to be pretty extensive, so even though the code we write with the WPI libraries may be different, just being able to explore the IDE before kickoff would help a lot.

Like dcbrown said the evaluation comes with a lot of docs. There's also some info freely available at their site:
The main product page for the workbench is at http://www.windriver.com/products/workbench/
Here's a good introduction: http://www.windriver.com/products/pr...-Tech-Note.pdf
