There's always Mathematica for the Raspberry Pi, completely free for personal use! https://www.wolfram.com/raspberry-pi/ https://www.wolfram.com/raspberry-pi/

  I would want to use Mathematica for work related stuff, though.

    Well then maybe your company can afford it, no? (Unless you're a bootstrapping startup, of course)

      I suspect many people are in the same position I am. I like the tool and occasionally wish I had a copy at work, but the problems I would use it on are infrequent and/or peripheral to my actual job. It's hard to justify burning the social capital for an 'occasional' nicety.

      My company isn't going to pay 3500€ for a tool that I don't really need.

  Since a full version Mathematica is available on the Raspberry Pi, anyone who is interested has a very inexpensive route to getting a free copy. Mathematica is very functional on the Raspberry Pi and, I think, making the software available as such is very generous of Wolfram. Also for those who cant afford a Raspberry Pi, excellent mathematical functionality is available via the Wolfram Alpha website for free.

    > those who cant afford a Raspberry Pi That is very few people who would use Mathematica, no?

    >excellent mathematical functionality is available via the Wolfram Alpha website for free. My experience is that they've significantly ratcheted down the amount of compute time per request in recent years. It's become much less useful to me because so many of my requests time out.
