   Dear Sir or Madam,
      My name is Natalie. I'm from Surabaya, Indonesia. I'm a college student
   majoring in Computer Science.
      I am interested in Common Lisp and a beginner in learning CL.

You are clearly a student with good taste in computer languages! :-)

   I read David S. Touretszky book about CL introduction.
      However, I need to practise it on my computer. I couldn't find the
   software in my country. 

To just practice with Common Lisp, you could probably get by with some
of the free lisps out there.  For example, see
http://www.harlequin.com/products/ads/freelisp/freelisp.html for
details about Harlequin's free lisp product.

      So here are my questions:

   1. Is Symbolics Lisp a Common Lisp ? Because I knew that mulisp-90 isn't.

Symbolics Lisp is in the Common Lisp family.

   2. Is there Symbolics Lisp version on DOS and Windows (3.1 or 95)?
      How much space it needs?

Symbolics used to have a Lisp which ran on a PC, but they might not be
selling it at this time.  I recommend contacting the folks listed at
http://www.symbolics.com/ for more information.

   4. What the differences and advantages of Symbolics compared to the other
   CL softwares?

Some people really like the Symbolics software development environment.
