where is macsyma

Does anyone own/use/know the Macsyma symbolic math package? If so, do you know what has happened to it or its parent company (symbolics)? Neither their website nor their phone lines are functional!

If anyone knows about their new whereabouts I'd really appreciate a pointer.

Thanks in advance

(1). The address was Macsyma,Inc. 20 Academy St. Arlington,MA02476-6401, Tel

781)646-4240. (2). Like anything else, the world is dynamic. I don't know whether the company is still there, since it is not a CFD question.

I found out that they went bankrupt. As for relevance to CFD, as someone who uses symbolic math packages to develop CFD algorithms, I would say the question is not directly related to CFD but this forum would be a good place to find out what happened to the company.

(1). Thank you very much for the information about the use of symbolic math in CFD development. I think, it's something new for me. (2). And I am sorry to learn that the company is out of business.
