We just received the enhanced version of Mathematica for the Mac II today.
It's not cheap---an extra US$300 for the 68881 support---but this is not
PowerMath (which retails in the order of US$100).
Earlier reports on Mathematica for the Mac noted that Dr Wolfram's book
published by Addison-Wesley wasn't included.  Either there was a reason
at the time or they read the gripes in the meantime, but we received a
hard-cover version of the book in the box.

There is an educational institution discount in the order of 15%.

P.S. If you think Mathematica is expensive, wait until you pay for the
memory upgrade so that it will run!
