We have a network of Apollo 3500 and 4500 workstations with a 4 cpu DN10000 server. Does anyone know if there is a version of Mathematica yet for Apollo machines (running SR10), and if there is, does it use NCS (network computer system). It would seem to me to be crazy not to be able to utilize the cpu power of the 10000 with this brand new box sitting on our token ring :-) -- /\/\ Ian Hoyle / / /\ BHP Melbourne Research Laboratories / / / \ 245 Wellington Rd, Mulgrave, 3170 / / / /\ \ AUSTRALIA \ \/ / / / \ / / / Phone : (03) 560 7066 \/\/\/ ACSnet : ianh@merlin.bhpmrl.oz Internet: ianh%merlin.bhpmrl.oz@uunet.uu.net

i spoke with the people at wolfram and asked them about Mathematica on apollos and it seems that at this point0 in time the answer is no. i might add that they are considering a port to apollo. note the word CONSIDERING. hope this is of some help. vince pugliese apollo@ecf.utoronto.edu

Vince, did you notice the Jan 89 p.101 announcement in Computer Graphics World that Sun Microsystems has released (not Wolfram?) SunMathematica? Why can Sun do this and Apollo can not? Or is it? Seems Sun did its own conversion. (I know you're not the person to ask; I'm only agitat'in a bit :=) -- ___________________ Darryl C.

Hiya, We talked to our local Apollo reps who told us that Mathematica is available for the Apollos. Check with your local dealer. Maurice E-MAIL : sharp@ksi.cpsc.UCalgary.CA EAN : sharp@calgary.CDN
