I have received numerous requests for info on MacMaple. ...

The program is version 4.0 of the University of Waterloo's Maple. It will 
run on a Mac Plus with a hard disk, although this is minimal. (lots of
RAM helps!!!). The program is currently a direct translation of the
command line versions of Maple that run on other (larger) machines. Someone
at Waterloo told me that they are considering working on a Macish version
if they get a chance to get around to it.

The cost (last April) was $1000 Canadian for a single user license. Contact
them for info on possible educational discounts. You will need MPW to get
the program running (just MPW - you won't need the languages).

I haven't tried their e-mail address for several months, it was:
	allegra!watmath!watdaisy!watmaple

Benton Leong is the guru there.


Good luck -- I think this is one of the more interesting ports to the micro
world. It certainly saves me $$$ on calculations. I would tend to recommend
it to people who have played with symbolic algebra programs as they all
suffer a similar disease...
