[mathcad] Mathcad and AMD processors

Author: Tim Reilly Posted: Mon, 15 Aug 2005 22:11:14 -0500

I always buy AMD just to provide competition to Intel. I run mathcad 11 on
an AMD Athlon XP laptop. This is not 64 bits. I did have to cut the
graphics acceleration way down to make mathcad happy, but I think this was a
graphics card issue. No problems except that. I bought my son a laptop with a 64 bit AMD processor, and he has not had problems with it but he is not runing mathcad. He is a music major, and runs some pretty sophisticated sampler programs (Giga
Studio) on it without problems.

Product Reviews

"Our work ranges from complex medical imaging research to large-scale mapping and diagrams and we need a tool that is able to handle anything we investigate. With Mathcad, we are able to manipulate and analyse our data quickly while at the same time documenting our work, for sharing and publication. We also use it for pilot studies conducted in support of research grant applications. It is an end-to-end tool for research and development."
Dr. Kenneth Castleman, President of Advanced Digital Imaging Research (ADIR), Houston, Texas

"Mathcad is an integral product for my work... With Mathcad, itís easy to disseminate design calculations because the documents look like real math. Thereís very little I canít do in Mathcad. The main benefits come from the format, which resemble a typed set of calculations. These programs are easier to develop by engineers and easier for others to follow and review since the logic is expressed in a familiar manner. The format is what places Mathcad head and shoulders above other programs of a similar function."
Andre Pavlov, Structural Engineer, Florida Department of Transportation
