Actually, I even bought the Intel successor to the Compaq successor
to the Digital successor to MS PowerStation; I needed the Intel successor
rather than the HP successor because I use IMSL extensively. But I didn't
like the interface, so I uninstalled it and reverted back to MSPS. Maybe a
high price to pay for an interface preference.
Therein lies the attraction of Bailey's package, as I understand it:
I can incorporate it into my existing system (I hope).
