Hair and Fur in MAX 8

I noticed that the included MAX 8 tutorials are painfully sparse on animating with their new Hair and Fur WSM. I thought this would be a good place to share any information we learn about it. Here's what i've found out:

1) in order to render hair motion, you must precalculate it

2) hair collisions are PAINFULLY hard to do and require lots of guide splines

3) spacewarps such as wind are great tools for getting effects with hair, but they take quite a bit of tweaking to acheive the right effect

that's all i can think of right now. if anyone's figured out how to make the hair correctly collide with it's growth object, let me know!
