All general PC labs and PC technology classrooms have been upgraded to Windows Vista and all general Mac labs and Mac technology classrooms have been upgraded to OS X Leopard this summer. We have made every effort to ensure that all university core and mission-critical software is compatible with these operating systems. "Class-specific" software requested by individual academic departments for use in the labs was referred to the sponsoring department for testing.

Lab Administration maintains approximately 60 distinct system images in support of general and departmental labs and technology classrooms. We strive to insure that all JMU standard software installed in the labs is current, has the most recent patches and security updates installed and is consistent in all computing support labs and technology classrooms across campus.

Software updates and browser plug-ins (i.e. Flash, Shockwave, etc) are updated to their most current version when the images are created. Newer versions can be downloaded in the labs as required.
