Updated ubermix-key installer to support system upgrades without loss of user data for all future releases (but not from .64 to .65, due to disk geometry changes)

Added Virtual Microscope (http://virtual.itg.uiuc.edu) and configured for specimens to be stored in user home under Library/virtual-microscope (for easy copying to multiple laptops, as files are large and req much time to download)
Added NASA MathTrax (http://prime.jsc.nasa.gov/MathTrax) to the mix

Added Freemind (http://freemind.sourceforge.net), Scribus (http://www.scribus.net), Inkscape (http://www.inkscape.org) from Ubuntu repositories to the mix.

Cheese suffers from a number of bugs, including static images for 3-5 secs at the start of recorded video, no support for ALSA, etc. guvcview offers better controls and more reliable performance, and saves in avi format, which is a bit better supported on all platforms than ogg.

Please note: Due to design complexities/special requirements of the newest Intel Atom N2x00 (Cedar Trail) devices, until further notice there will be two separate downloadable builds of ubermix - a General Availability (GA) version for most devices, and a special Cedar Trail (CT) version for new Cedar Trail devices (mostly netbooks). Please be sure to download the correct version. When possible, the two versions will be consolidated into one.
Please also note: Due to the necessary increase in the size of the base system partition, ubermix versions 0.913 and up will not be installable on EeePC 90x series devices, as they lack the appropriate available space on their primary drive.
