This is software that is installed on all of the computers.
 * '''Active TCL''' - Active``State provides a newer version of Tcl/Tk than Apple. It has the added advantage of being a Universal binary that works on PPC and x86, unlike the version that comes with MacOS X 10.4, which is a PPC version that has to run in emulation on an x86 like our iMacs. MacOS X 10.5 has a more current (and Universal) version of Tcl/Tk and consequently doesn't need ActiveTCL. On the PC ActiveTCL provides Tcl/Tk, as Microsoft ships no version.

 * '''Firefox''' - a popular web browser. [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/ Firefox website]

 * '''Linger''' - A program written in Tcl/Tk for doing language experiments, particularly self-paced reading studies. [http://tedlab.mit.edu/~dr/Linger/ Linger website]

 * '''Bazaar''' - A distributed version control system written and maintained by [http://canonical.com/ Canonical Software]. It is conceptually similar to Git, but is designed to be easier to use, especially if you have experience with CVS or Subversion. Bazaar can be used in a distributed or centralized manner.
