The only issue is that the version of Mathematica on the install disk is the PPC version and not the universal version.  Hence, my computer is running Mathematica through Rosetta, Apple's PPC interpretation layer.  This is quite slow!

Mathematica 5.2.2 is the first Intel-native version for Mac OS X.  You

your student version, or possibly from Wolfram Research technical
support.
