I've heard that VIP is a memory hog; only 32K left for spreadsheet with 512K machine and that calculations are very slow: over a minute for a small 20 by 20 array. Since maxiplan advertises sparse matrix calculations plus database and plotting routines, sounds like has the advantages of analyze and the features of VIP without some of the problems. Anyone with any experience?? Bob Adams
