Version 3.0 of Mathematica on PowerMacs is probably being used by somebody.
I know that v2.2.3 of Mathematica on PowerMcs is being used. Bill Davis,
of Ohio State University, is experimenting with a graphics language for
describing virtual reality (I've forgotten the acronym, as well as what it
stands for--something like Virtual Reality Mark-up Language, or VRML) in
a multi-media setting.

Many people are experimenting with TI-92's, as well.
