Version 3.0 is *very* nice, with the entire 1400 page book available via on-line help, along with classy typography. It also takes 116Mb for a full install, as well as Motif (I don't know if lesstif would work). It seems very fast and stable---Wolfram Research took the time to do this right. I've not yet experimented with notebook-->html pages and the like, but there's lots of fun stuff to explore. Is there a Linux (or Debian) Mathematica group?? --Norris -- Norris Preyer (541) 962-3310 (office) Physics Program (541) 962-3873 (fax) Eastern Oregon State College [EMAIL PROTECTED] La Grande, OR 97850 http://140.211.64.20/npreyer.html
