Will this all work if we want to run, say, PC Macsyma? I'm much more
interested in that than in MMA, for various reasons (hey, I *like* LISP)

Does anyone out there have experience to maybe coerce macsyma to run under
available OS/2 (i.e. buy it off the shelf tomorrow)? I haven't tried, I'm
still spec-ing hardware and software packages...
