Title: Looking for Mathematica 3.0.2 RESURECTION ATTEMPT
Post by: Rob Blessin Black Hole on May 15, 2012, 06:39:22 PM
Hello NeXT Community : I'm looking for Mathematica version 3.0.2 which was the last version of Mathematica for Black Hardware. Awhile back I had a copy on CDROM but my CDROM drive broke the master disk and yes I did not make a back up. Wolfram had assigned me golden licenses upon high that were for this version and apparently do not work with version 3.0 which I have a copy of so if you have a copy of 3.0.2 Mathematica please help i will gladly pay something for it and may be I can help out others in the NeXT community that is my intention it would be nice if Wolfram just released an easier way for us to enjoy old Mathematica without it being quest for fire in the cold arctic north , here is a statement I have from Wolfram showing I have permission to do this:

http://www.blackholeinc.com/catalog/software/Software/Scientific/math.pdf     and I appreciate this tremendously but getting it to work is another problem , I suspect that because I only now have version 3.0 and not 3.0.2 that is what is shooting me down and have noted a similar post with reference to hellfire flaming directed at me for not having the chosen golden disk.  Hey I'm trying ; please do not shoot the messenger (me) as my heart is in this...

If we can upload this version 3.0.2 to the archive here that would be great, if it is already here in some secret file please  point me at it I've looked with no luck and would like to get Mathematica 3.0.2 resurrected for the good of the NeXT community and will take all responsibility for this.

PS: I have a couple NeXT Sony 17" Trinitron  and 1 Hitachi 21" Monitors that do not power up  , if someone wants them by paying for shipping and boxes and a $10 fee to cover paypal fees and my time please let me know.   I suspect they may have capacitor or other component issues, the cases are in good shape.
Best regards  Rob Blessin

If you find a copy that would be great, they had assigned me 50 licenses about 10 years ago, so I'll look for those on my end...  basically it requires 3 parts math pass, license and then we use those to generate a password on the Wolfram site , it is worth a go and I would gladly give you a license and or something else NeXT related in trade for helping out.

My original CD developed a crack in the center this was a few years back so it no longer works for installs and now there is a lot of renewed interest in Mathematica on NeXT, the current code generator at Wolfram won't generate codes for 2.0, 2.1 and 2.2 we have tried with their staffs assistance.
