I have pretty decided to buying Maple.  I wrote and got the full
package of material (reviews and comparisons with other packages as
well as lots of details about use of the package).  I have two
questions which I hope users can answer:

1. What version is now available for the Amiga?  After 90 days
upgrades cost 60% of the full price, and since 5.0 for the Amiga has
been "soon" for a long time, it seems like a safer idea to wait until
they actually release rather than guess that it will be within 90
days.

2. I plan to use it on an un-accelerated A2000.  Is that in fact tolerable?
