Just a brief note to support David Elbert's thoughtful comments concerning Wri's academic pricing and password protection scheme. His comments are right on the mark. I know of many institutions that decided to use Maple or some other product because they were so much cheaper than Mma. And I would hate to hazzard a guess about the number of four letter words that have been uttered about Mma's password protection scheme. Mma is a great product. I hope it will be made more affordable to academic institutions. And I hope the password protection scheme will go ....ah, the way of other bad ideas. Dennis M. Schneider Knox College
