Step 2Download and install some software
We will need the free VB.Net and the picaxe controller software and if you have done the PC controller Instructable you will already have these.
VB.Net (Visual Basic Express) is available from http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/express/aa718406.aspx
The picaxe software is available from http://www.rev-ed.co.uk/picaxe/
You will need to register with microsoft to get the download - if this is a problem use a fake email or something. I actually found it helpful giving my real email as they send occasional updates.
I'm also going to mention the picaxe forum http://www.picaxeforum.co.uk/ as this is the sort of forum staffed by teachers and educators and where students can usually get answers to questions within a few hours. The forum is very understanding of even the simplest questions as some of the students are still at primary school level. Please don't be scared to ask for help!
