-===== Option #2.5: Ubuntu on Bash on Windows ===== +As stated earlier, this guide was written using Cygwin. There may be a couple missing steps here and there if you want to go with MinGW, but nothing major. Please update the wiki if you choose MinGW and find anything missing! 
-Windows 10 supports (in beta) the ability to run an Ubuntu based bash shell natively, including apt-get and things you'd expect on normal Ubuntu. This is only a half-option for now: The main drawback is that hardware support (the crazyradio, for example) is not plumbed through to this shell, so you won't be able to flash, connect, or run the python tools which talk to hardware.+

 +Note: In Cygwin, I've had trouble installing the NumPy .whl file from the /cygdrive mount point (aka /cygdrive/c/Users/username/Downloads/numpy.whl) and it complains about the file not existing. The solution to this is to copy the .whl file to somewhere in the Cygwin file system (like the home directory) and run the install command on that file instead.
