[net.unix] MACSYMA Now avail for 4.2

wcs@ho95b.UUCP (59577) (06/30/84)

A few days ago I replied to an article about making MACSYMA
work for 4.2, saying it would be out this summer.  Symbolics called
me today and  said it *has been* released.   In  addition, they
said a temporary use of the source might be available for
porting it to System V or whatever, without the $200K fee.
(I haven''t pursued the details of this further, since it may be
too big a job for my current schedule.)

Somebody might want to know the educational price is only $500. last
I checked.  Did Symbolics say who got the 4.2 tape?  I heard we were
the beta site....
