I once heard (read?) that there was a macintosh version of the mathematica
"Front End" ONLY (no kernel, no brains) for those of us who want to use
mathematica running on a mainframe computer but are nauseated by trying to
graph 3-D things on a tek emulator at home on our macs.  I also heard this 
was cheap....actually, I think it was about $49.  Is this what you were 
thinking of?  Does anyone know where it can be got?
