University of Rochester

The U of R campus bookstore does not sell computer software.

There is a "computer store," located under the bleachers of the stadium.

I asked for Mathematica and was greeted with a blank stare. They seem to sell only Norton Anti-virus, some Endnote program, and various ipod accessories.

Mathematica and other "technical programs" are available for "special order."

Don't ever let anyone tell you that this is a real University.

Yeah... I use it enough and can afford it, so I thought I might buy it. After all, off-their-rockers crazy academics need some source of funding.

Know if a Linux version is floating around?
