- 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...
