Hi,
I've been using Mathematica 1.2 (2.x is too buggy still) on a NeXT  
'040 cube with tons of RAM. Most of my computations have to do with  
acoustic wave propagation in anisotropic solids and they take a LONG  
time. In August I am heading west to NIST to continue my work and I'm  
trying to decide on what platform I should ask for. Likely candidates  
are Sun IPX and '486 boxes. I'd really like something as nice as the  
NeXT's interface, but a bit faster 8-).

Any help is greatly appreciated,
