	Well, all I saw was a demo at the U of I computer fair
and a plea by Wolfram for programmers to work on the mac user
interface for the then-unreleased product.  I understand that
it is more ambitious than macsyma in that it deals with 
numerical as well a symbolic math -- the demos seem to
concentrate on the (admittedly impressive) 3-D graphing
capabilities.

Bad news is, according to Wolfram, mac users will need
2.5 Meg.
