I talked to the person who is incharge of support at Wolfram last fall in Champaign-Urbana and asked about a native port to FreeBSD and he said the usual "not enough interest" and that it already works under Linux emulation. He also told me it costs them a lot of money to support new OS's. I was ammused when he told me that they had recently moved their website to a national hosting center and that when shoping around, a lot of the places they considered ran FreeBSD and they finally went w/ pair networks. paul To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
