I called up Wolfram research earlier today, to find out if there are student
discounts available on the (Mac II) version of Mathematica--there are, and
you can get them even if your university has no connection at all with
Wolfram research, but the discount is a disappointing %15.  This leaves the
Mac II version priced at $675, still way out of my price range.

I remember seeing a posting some time ago, about a university that was
selling Mathematica for a much lower price, because it was selling a copy with
every Mac it sold (bundled.)  Could someone please post further info on this
program?  Who knows, I might be able to get my university interested.

Also, will Mathematica for the II work on the IIx/IIcx?

Thanks for the help,
Ken McDonald
