Thanks Jerry, (and to the others who took time to think about my question) , but I think ListSurfacePlot only works only on regular coordinate spacing? Correct me if I'm wrong. My Mathematica code looks like this: In[1]:= SetDirectory["c:\Documents and Settings\P. Lindsay\DESKTOP\alanr"]; In[2]:= t=Table[ReadList["cpp_smlX.txt",Number,RecordLists -> True]]; In[3]:= ScatterPlot3D[t,BoxRatios->{10,10,10},Axes->True, AxesLabel->{"fair","num","ratio"},ViewPoint->{3.0,2.5,0.3}] and works but is incredibly slow ( pc 450Mz 190Mb ram, Mathematica 3 ). My Mac Cube ( 300 Mb ram, Mathematica 4 ) wont even look at the problem - just hangs up. Any thoughts about why?. Tried fiddling with kernel memory allocation. The competition ( vs 6 ) works easily ( pointplot3D ) on either platform but not yet for surface plot. Can I get a surface plot of the data in "cpp_smlX.txt" - remembering that the data is non-linear spacing ?
