- mejutoco 3y agoYes, but if you download raspbian to run in on virtualbox or similar it is not there. I guess they have different licenses.
- pcdoyle 3y agoI didn't know that, but apparently yes: https://www.wolfram.com/raspberry-pi/ https://www.wolfram.com/raspberry-pi/
- dsign 3y agoYou do. I used it like that for many years, until I could afford the PC version. The raspberry pi version is version-capped though, to whatever they have released up to that point for that platform.
- Ycdr4thfdd 3y agoAre there restrictions against running it on a more powerful arm64 server?
- rcarmo 3y agoAt one time, it would test for the existence of Pi-specific devices, but it’s been a long while since I ran it there.
- bscphil 3y agoThis is an interesting question (which I don't know the answer to) because the Raspberry Pi hardware does not itself come with a license for Mathematica or the software in question. Rather, it's part of the Raspbian distribution. I think there's a decent chance that you agree to an EULA after installing the software that would prohibit running it on other hardware, but it would be interesting to hear something definite.
