When I went back to uni, a lot of my classes had us using Mathematica. While the software is fine, I found Steven Wolfram's relentless promotion a bit off-putting. Felt a lot like P. T. Barnum somehow and I wasn't really comfortable being a customer of someone who made me feel like P. T. Barnum was selling me something.
