[Lab] O'Reilly Arduino + Processing course

[Darcy Whyte]

It was good.

You need to install the Arduino IDE and the Processing.org IDE. You need to
install a Processing library in Arduino and an Arduino library in Processing
so they can talk to each other. Well in a nutshell that's what we did.

There is a BOM in the course description somewhere. Some pots, resistors and
LEDs and stuff. But we haven't needed it yet.
