[comp.sys.mac] What ever happened to... MILO

rcbaem@eutrc3.UUCP (Ernst Mulder) (03/28/89)

Yesterday I played a while with a really out-of-date-pre-release-beta-
sub-eta-sens-o-matic-demo-etc. version of the Math program Milo,
what has happened to it? It looked really promising to me.

I saw an ad for Milo in either MacWorld or MacUser a couple of months
ago, and I believe it should be out by now.  In either case, look in a
back issue of either to find the Ad.  I don't think it's been in the
one or two most recent issues.  One semi-funny note.  The ad has a
picture of a mac which sits on a stack of textbooks.  From the choice
of books, it's pretty obvious that this program was made by an
ex-physics major (correct me if I'm wrong, but I think I saw something
like that in the Caltech beta release help file...)  Notable books include
Jackson, Goldstein, and MTW's Gravitation...

Milo is being marketed by Paracomp, INC. and retails for $250.  A local
dealer carries it and offers a 25% educational discount.  If you are
interested, I'd recommend you contact them...
