re: Maple V 5 wil not have FPU support...

This is SILLY! I was thinking to get Maple for my A3000
and they ome out with a new version that does not use
fpus... It makes NO sense at all to me.  Considered the kind
of program that Maple is, the biggest target machine should
be an accelerated A2000 or an A3000: a plain 68000 user
will probably  not be too much interested in spending 400$
for a package that will take forever to run, and a 68030 
user will want to minimize execution time anyway [why else
buy a 3000].

I really hope that the Maple people will reconsider their
decision: I'll pay that money only for a program that can take
advantage of my machine!
