One last thing, I wanted to say that my earlier Mathematica comments
do not (usually) apply when dealing with the individual developers,
who are (usually) very helpful, especially on MathGroup. The thing I
am complaining about is the overall process of reporting and fixing
problems.

My impression is that recalculates on the fly, but until you stop
(moving a slider for example) it tries to do quick-and-dirty
computations and rendering. This is pretty clear if you manipulate a
3D graph of a function f(x,y,a) with a the parameter - it doesn't even
draw the mesh until you let go

I looked at Mathematica's new manipulate command and I
Yes, thanks, that example looks like it will help me a lot.
Btw, before reading William's instructions, I ran it without the -
python option and it seemed fine. Does the -python option just turn
off the preparser?
Cheers,

Also, for the benefit of the students you may possibly be
indoctrinating:
Please realize that WRI's marketing materials (aka documentation -
lol) make it seem like MMA can do anything (and so they might attempt
to use MMA in all their later courses - like me - which may not be
wise).

Yeah, I have used mathematica for 17 years and I've pushed it very
hard at times. 6.0 seems much buggier than previous releases, but
they added and rewrote so much that I am not that surprised. I still
think its an amazing accomplishment, and for illustrating basic ideas
in calculus I don't thin
... wait until you actually start pushing Mathematica, it gets
sluggish on you, produces wrong results and/or crashes, and you
receive apathy and blame dodging instead of tech support and bug
fixing.
