	My middle and high school boys could use some easy way to plot
simple equations on our home 286, which has no floating point chip. We
have both Quattro and Golden Software's Graphics and Surfer, so have
no problem plotting data once generated. However, for most purposes
this is a pain.

	I see that MathCad 3.1 is being offered at $99, but that seems
a little heavy. I have no need for such at the office since I have
available a Sun Sparc etc.  

	Can anyone recommend something cheaper and easier to use than
MathCad even if fewer features?
