-This time the last factor I get is 124028873 = 10399*11927.
+This time the last factor I get is $124028873 = 10399 \times 11927$.
The other factors seem right.

But in the Linux version (patch 50; September 2006), the last factor was
-119970353 = 10253 * 11701 (and both primes were missing from the list, which
according to the Windows version has 1479 distinct prime factors).
-
-In the Linux version (Axiom 3.9, September 2005), the last factor was
123643253 = 10243 * 12071.
-In the Linux version (Axiom 3.0 Beta, Februayr 2005), there were TWO
incomplete factors: 119643463, 129864979 (both were not factorable using
'factor' in this version (that is at least consistent!) AND the Windows version
(this is inconsistent), whereas 119643463 = 10111*11833 and 129864979 =
11027*11777 (these primes were listed in the Windows version for factor
factorial 12399). More inconsistencies: prime? reports both of these as 'false'
(correct answer). So it appears that the factorization program and the
primality check program are independent.

-In the Linux version (October 25, 2004), the last factor was 117661597 =
10651*11047. This version displays many more messages about loading domains.
