Perhaps some of you have seen this, but here is a copy of some private
mail -- I actually have rreceived this mail from 2 sources. I don't know if
they get commissions for sales or not.
Anyway, enjoy!

MathType 6 for Windows Now Shipping

New version adds Microsoft Office 2007 and Windows Vista compatibility,
plus TeX/LaTeX input and Wikipedia interoperability

LONG BEACH, Calif. -- September 12, 2007 -- Design Science today
announced the release of MathType 6 for Windows, a major upgrade that is
compatible with Microsoft Office 2007 and Windows Vista. New features
include TeX input, the ability to copy equations to and from Wikipedia,
and more. MathType is the full-featured, professional version of the
Equation Editor in Microsoft Office and many other products, and is used
by math and science educators, engineers, research scientists, students
and publishing professionals to include mathematical notation in printed
documents, presentations and web pages.

MathType 6 takes full advantage of Office 2007's new Ribbon user
interface by adding a new MathType tab in Word and PowerPoint to do
equation operations in documents and presentations, and introduces new
equation numbering and browse features that work with all Word 2007
equation types. "I can see already that 6.0 is going to cut my
preparation time down considerably. The new ribbon interface is so much
clearer." said William F. Shughart II, F.A.P. Barnard Distinguished
Professor of Economics, Editor in Chief, Public Choice, The University
of Mississippi, Department of Economics.

MathType 6 enables the user to copy equations from existing TeX
documents, and scientists who already know the TeX typesetting language
can now type expressions directly into MathType. "The new
LaTeX-to-MathType feature is marvelous. Instead of having to retype all
my equations again to use in a PowerPoint presentation, I now can just
cut and paste. This is the best software purchase I have made in a long
time." said Alfonso Limon, Chief Scientist, A&A Consulting Ca.

MathType 6 now works with Wikipedia, the popular online encyclopedia
that contains thousands of pages with mathematical equations. Users can
do research on Wikipedia and copy relevant equations for use in their
own work. MathType equations can also be copied into Wikipedia's page
editor to create new pages, or edit existing ones.

MathType is US $57 for academic users, $97 for non-academic users;
upgrades are US $37 for academic users, $49 for non-academic users.
