* I downloaded Sugar on a Stick and ran it on my computer -- however, the project I'm working with is about the Calculate activity. I found how to download the Calculate activity from your Activities page, however I don't know how to take that downloaded activity and incorporate it into my USB device/environment. So my question is: How can I take a downloaded activity and use it with Sugar on a Stick?
