But to be honest, if the use of Maple or Mathmatica would be closer to Mathcad, I would have switched three months ago. As long as that works reasonably well and Maple or Mathmatica stays the same I probably will not switch to Maple or Mathmatica. The second best is using Windows on my Mac with Mathcad installed. Develop worksheets that are presentable and understandable. Easy to use natural math notation means no special programming. Download and Experience the Power of PTC Mathcad 15.0.

So Mathcad for OS X would be the far best solution for me. This trial version is the same as the full commercial version of PTC Mathcad with the exception that it will expire 30 days after it is installed. It has downsides to, but for me it is an ideal companion. That is what I like very very much about Mathcad. I just start typing text and formulas like I am using a word processor. I don't have to plan what I am trying to accomplish. When I use Mathcad, I can start a worksheet which ends as a document for third parties. I am always willing to change my way I work, but there are to many downsides with the units an presentation of results (document).

But the way I use Mathcad (as an Engineer) is not that easy with Mathmatica and Maple. Mathmatica and Maple may be much more sophisticated when it comes to programming, (differential) analysis and complex problem solving.

MATHCAD FOR MAC MAC OS X
My personal opinion is that PTC will not develop a Mac version of Mathcad Prime because of the high cost of hiring, managing, and maintaining a Mathcad-for-Mac application development team in addition to the Windows application development team.Īnd since it is clearly a PTC goal to keep Mathcad integrated with the rest of PTC's product line, there would have to be Mac OS X versions of every other PTC product, too. I believe that the reason was, Mathsoft simply could not afford to maintain two (Win and Mac) product development teams. Mathsoft stopped supporting the Mac after Mathcad PLUS 6.0 for Power Macintosh, as introduced in 1996 and superseded in 1997 by Mathcad 7 Professional (for Windows 95 only). PTC's product line has historically worked on Windows, UNIX, and Linux-based platforms.See for the latest information about platform support.
