An inexpensive student version of SPICE for the Macintosh that is to
be highly recommended is "B-squared Spice" from

Beige Bag Software
715 Barclay Ct.,
Ann Arbor MI 48105
313-663-4309

71620.3474@compuserve.com

It doesn't do everything that full SPICE does, but it has the
matchless advantage that it has an excellent interactive graphics
circuit editor, i.e., you can wire up a circuit on the screen by
dragging components out from a palette onto the screen; wiring them up
with the mouse; then double-clicking on individual components to set
or change their component values.  You can then run dc, transient or
frequency-swept responses and view the results graphically, in the
same program, add or delete components, change components, drag the
circuit elements around to reshape the circuit, etc.

   As I understand it, the program runs "real Spice" (and in fact it
saves a net list which you can open as a text file), but doesn't
implement all the full bells and whistles of a complete Spice program.
Our students love it (and so do I).
