 ====== Mathematica at the Physics department ======
-The FU Physics department has a Mathematica site license. You can therefore use Mathematica on any computer at the department and you are also eligible to receive a license for using Mathematica on your home computer or notebook. Depending on your status (student or faculty) and the type of computer (centrally managed or self-administered, networked or offline) installation and activation of the software may differ.
+{{ :software:mathematica:mathematica.png?nolink|}}The FU Physics department has a Mathematica site license. You can therefore use Mathematica on any computer at the department and you are also eligible to receive a license for using Mathematica on your home computer or notebook. Depending on your status (student or faculty) and the type of computer (centrally managed or self-administered, networked or offline) installation and activation of the software may differ.
+Basically there are two cases:
+  * The computer you want to run Mathematica on is **not permanently connected to the physics department network** (e.g. your computer at home or your notebook). In this case you will need a [[software:mathematica:single-user|single-user license]].
+  * The computer you want to run Mathematica on is **permanently connected to the physics department network**. In this case you should use a [[software:mathematica:network-license|network-license]].

+===== Benchmarks =====
+The following table lists benchmark results for hosts at the department using ''Needs["Benchmarking`"]; Benchmark[]'' (best of 3 runs).

-Since you are most likely here because you are interested in using Mathematica at home or on your notebook, we start with these cases which involve a little more work to get up and running:
-  * [[software:mathematica:home-use-faculty|Mathematica Home-Use license for faculty members]]
-  * [[software:mathematica:home-use-student|Mathematica Home-Use license for students]]
