I got the Mac II version of Mathematica at Egghead Clearance (sp?)
for $318.  If you are near either of the Egghead Clearance stores,
check them out.  One if in Sunnyvale, and one is in Santa Monica.
( those are both in California ).

Their prices and selection are rather interesting.  I saw new
stuff, such as Mathematica and FoxBase, and old stuff, such as
"I Know It's Here Somewhere", when I was last there.

Their prices are time dependent.  For example, the front of my
copy of Mathematica states:

	FROM	TO	YOU SAVE]	YOU PAY
	1/20	2/02	159.00		636.00
	2/03	2/16	238.50		556.60
	2/17	3/02	318.00		477.00
	3/03	3/16	397.50		397.50
	3/17	.....	477.00		318.00

When I got Mathematica, I also noticed three copies of FoxBase.
They were $200 but were scheduled to go to $150 in three days.
When I went back in three days, one was still left, so I got
it.  It was version 1.0.  The one copy of 1.1 had been sold,
even though I had been careful to move it to the back three
days before :-).  Fox sent 1.1 for free as soon as they got
my registration card, however, so it didn't really matter.
I had to pay Fox $75 to upgrade to 2.0 because I lost my
receipt that proved I bought version 1 near enough to the
release of 2 to be eligible for a free upgrade, but still,
a total of $225 for FoxBase 2.0 is not bad.
