=== Windows Software Center ===

In an effort to reduce disk space issues, we have uninstalled various software on the departmental image, which will instead be offered optionally through a program called "Software Center"

Some software we will offer this way:
  * Google Chrome
  * Mathematica
  * Matlab
  * Origin
  * ImageNow
  * iTunes

To install any of these follow these steps:

(2.) The various tabs show software which is available, installing, or installed. To install a program, check the corresponding box and click install in the bottom right corner. It should install automatically, and the status can be check on in the corresponding tab.
