It's really beautiful. I have seen videos about it, I love the notebook idea 
(Jupyter is nice but not quite there), love the idea of Manipulate. But I hate 
the idea that if I didn't have $X to pay for it next year, I wouldn't be able 
to run my programs any more, and this is usually what stops me from getting too 
attached to closed-source languages. *cough*Dyalog*cough*
