Bug Description

In Ubuntu Software Center's navigation bar, the "Installed" button takes you to a list of everything you have installed. The button's icon is a monochrome desktop PC, because it represents the things currently on your computer. https://launchpadlibrarian.net/130626446/831032-installed.png (A)

Meanwhile, installed apps and other items have an emblem on their icon, a white checkmark on a green disc. (B)

There's no relationship between the two graphic elements. So it's not as easy to understand the meaning of the installed emblem as it could be.

Perhaps the "Installed" icon should just be a monochrome version of the installed emblem, with no computer shown. (This would work across form factors.) Or maybe it should still be a computer, but with a same-shaped checkmark on the screen of that computer.
