Where to download Maple or Mathematica and what do they cost?

[GCT]

Hi all, I'm currently searching for downloadable maple/mathematica software, do any of you know where I could go online to find one? If I were to buy one, how much would it typically cost?

Mathematica is about $1800...

but if you're a student, its $140... which makes me wonder if its a dumbed down version or something... even though nothing seems dumbed down when I use it.

Maple:

Student edition downloaded is $99 US. It's the same as the pro version, but I think the pro version comes with more manuals and costs more (I don't know offhand how much more). There's also a limited term license for less cash.

iirc the student version of mathematica has the same functionality as the full one, but your license is temporary and i think it prints a watermark. Their website should know all:
