I might shy away from any personal attacks on Stephen Wolfram, despite

The name of the company is Wolfram as well, and I think that's what
was uniformly referred to in this thread. Though I can understand the
confusion.
I believe he was referring to this point from Jan's email:
* the controversial Mr Wolfram as a scientific role model

I'll add one more thing that convinces me to use Sage. Think of the
students and their future students (I teach lots of secondary math
majors that will go on to teach high school)! William posted up an
email I wrote about this and a few other things that I like about Sage a
while ago:
