I just noticed today that the Mathematica site has changed. No, I don’t just surf the web until something looks different. You can notice the slight change from the always useful MathWorld part of their site. They have posted new information about the long awaited Mathematica 6.
There is no information about the release date, but I was able to get all the way to the payment screen of their online store before I realized they were selling the older Mathematica 5.2 with a free upgrade to Mathematica 6. To me, this points to an eminent release. Well, I hope it points to that.
Far more importantly, their site contains loads of information about what the new version can do. It looks quite impressive. They have made some considerable upgrades to their 3D plotting, and it looks great. Lighting, transparency and all the things you would expect to get out of a half decent graphics card are all there. Look for yourself here.
UPDATE:
Mathematica 6 is out, you just can’t download it yet when you buy it their online store. It does make a person ask just how out the program is.
