Well, perhaps you would count CP/M systems as larger... it was ported to
them too.
Actually, the muMATH and muSIMP pair are the direct ancestor of the Derive
algebra system. And muLISP (which forms the foundation for muMATH and
muSIMP) is also still in production. I don't know if Derive uses muLISP.
And finally, the software in the TI-92 and TI-89 calculators (from Texas
Instruments) is a version of Derive.
See
http://www.derive.com/ for details.
I'm interested in computer algebra systems in general. If you want to talk
more, send me mail.
