That said, it sounds like it might be a hassle to get that to work on a Mac.
I got the personal license of Mathematica for Mac a while ago and thought the price was reasonable for such a powerful system.
The only thing that was driving me nuts is that Mathematica does not work properly on a Retina display, which of course is a shame as text and graphics would look gorgeous. Support for that is only planned for the next major version, according to Wolfram (http://mathematica.stackexchange.com/a/30104/10565 http://mathematica.stackexchange.com/a/30104/10565).
I recently found a hacky fix: http://mathematica.stackexchange.com/a/21158/10565 http://mathematica.stackexchange.com/a/21158/10565
With that, Mathematica now looks fantastic on my MacBook Pro's built-in screen.
- taliesinb 13y agoV10 is retina aware, and it's coming out soon.
- liyanage 13y agoGiven how easy the quick fix is to apply, basic Retina support should really have been in a free minor-version update to 9, not in a presumably paid upgrade to 10, after a long wait.
- taliesinb 13y agoI believe it required getting rid of some legacy libraries, which couldn't be achieved in a point release.
