Anaconda can be preferable to the system Python:

it has MKL already integrated, which is often faster and also better at utilizing multiple cores
installing packages like scipy, theano that need native extensions is easier as the dependencies are already packaged up

We should therefore support installation with Anaconda in the cluster.py script.

Perhaps more importantly, our Dockerfile should use Anaconda, see https://github.com/ContinuumIO/docker-images/blob/master/anaconda/Dockerfile.
