# '''Make it work to both boot and to run on the computers' current operating systems.'''

#: This is clearly possible, LinuxliveUSB has a this working for Windows.  

#* We need a Mac and Linux VirtualBox or other VM Solution.

#* We need a simple, elegant, Sugar specific UI that is presented to the user when they insert a stick into a running Windows machine.

#* ''Make it work with Macs.''

#*: It kinda works sometimes now. Some macs reboot if you do magic incantations. Some don't.  A VirtualBox "boot helper" VM that started the boot in VirtualBox, then looks to the stick was created by Dave Bauer, but it doesn't work on all Macs yet.

# '''XS integration needs to work simply and elegantly.'''

#* Backup and Restore  

#* A simple UI for recreating a lost or broken stick

#* Give teachers the power of Moodle - We need tools for teachers to manage student work on the XS and to push files to students sticks.

# '''Understand Stick failure and how to reduce it.'''

#: See Notes: [[Sugar_on_a_Stick/Installation/Variations#Cautions_with_using_Live_USB_devices | Cautions with using Live USB devices]], [[LiveOS image]], & [[Sugar_on_a_Stick/Stick_Layout | Stick Layout]]

# '''Make it simple and elegant to create sticks for your whole class.'''

#* Not a lot of steps for drivers, etc., and it works on most of the computers in the kids' houses.

#* Teacher decides what files and activities are included

#* No command line usage, an enjoyable, Sugarish experience.
