From the Kitchener-Waterloo Record on April 13, 1991 from an interview 
with the Maple software group:

...
And Next, the new educational computer developed by Apple co-founder Steve
Jobs, has asked Maple to produce a Next-compatible version of its
software.
	The worldwide marketplace for symbolic math software is currently a
two-horse race between Maple and Mathematica, a product of the larger
Wolfram Research Inc., of Champagne, Ill.
...
"I see us actually passing the (market) leader, Mathematica, in two and a
half to three years" [Neumann said]
