206 assignment, week one

Assignment: Get nasm running wherever you plan to do your homework. At home, you can use Windows for development, then transfer everything to Linux. Or you can use SecureShell client and do all your work directly on Linux. (Here are downloads.) If you want to use an X client, possibly on Cygwin, with our Linux server, go for it.
