# Software installation on Windows
To follow the course practicals, you need a terminal and
[
Git
](
http://git-scm.com/
)
, both of which are easy to install on
[
Linux
](
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux
)
or Mac OSX. For Windows, there are
a number of options, described below.
## MobaxTerm
Most light-weight is to install something like
[
MobaXterm
](
http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/
)
, which provides a terminal emulator
and can install other software from the Linux platform such as Git.
After opening MobaxTerm, use the following to install Git:
apt-get install git libopenssl100
## VirtualBox
Using
[
VirtualBox
](
https://www.virtualbox.org/
)
, you can run a complete Linux
installation in a virtual machine from Windows. For example, create a new
virtual machine with VirtualBox and install
[
Ubuntu
](
http://www.ubuntu.com/
)
in
it.
## Work on a remote machine
If you have an account on a remote Linux machine, you can connect to that using
[
PyTTY
](
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html
)
or
[
MobaXterm
](
http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/
)
and work from there.
