A friend of mine is interested in buying an A2500/30 but he also wants to get Mathematica. Does anyone know if Mathematica will run on an AMAX equipt Amiga? Can you run Mathematica without a hard drive? Jim

I use Mathematica on my MACII, and my version won't run on a machine with 128k roms such as those used on AMAX. Besides, Mathematica is the worst memory hog on my system. Typically 1-2 Meg to hold the files and 4-8 megs RAM to run well. You could just do it on an 8-meg amiga with AMAX and a 2-meg RAM disk, but as I said, you'd need a version that can run on a Mac-plus (128k ROMs).
