Hi David,
1.) how did you manage to get no syntax errors, when using [M11,...] instead of {{M11,M12},{...}}?
2.) don't use "*" for matrix multiplication.
2.a) use "Dot" instead: A.M
FullForm[A*M] shows in version 5.2:
List[List[Times[A11,M11],Times[A12,M12]],List[Times[A21,M21],Times[A22,M22]]]
(which is {{A11*M11, A12*M12}, {A21*M21, A22*M22}})
and FullForm[A.M] displays as:
List[List[Plus[Times[A11,M11],Times[A12,M21]],
Plus[Times[A11,M12],Times[A12,M22]]],
List[Plus[Times[A21,M11],Times[A22,M21]],
Plus[Times[A21,M12],Times[A22,M22]]]]
which is more readable, without FullForm:
{{A11*M11 + A12*M21, A11*M12 + A12*M22},
{A21*M11 + A22*M21, A21*M12 + A22*M22}}
I'm sorry, I can't reproduce the described behaviour.
