Is there a way through the Activation Key, Activate Online prompt? I think I tried what was possible and never got through.

I remember trying to get it running on a rPI 3 (just 1gb ram) and was huge to download and slow as molasses to boot?

did it improve, btw ?

IIRC, this has been the case for a while. I seem to recall getting a Raspberry Pi ~5 years ago which had Mathematica on it. Admittedly it was quite slow, but as far as I can recall it did work.

10 years now. Found post that was first announced: https://writings.stephenwolfram.com/2013/11/putting-the-wolf...

Yes, it's been around for ages. I actually used a Pi when learning linear algebra to generate problem sets.

What exactly is the boundary between commercial and non-commercial use?

E.g. say you make an educational video that contains a portion of using Mathematica on RPI, and you could get ads income, is that indirect or direct commercial use?

What if you use it to compute dimensions of some woodworking art piece that you sell later?

What if you make a scientific or mathematical discovery thanks to it that you later use in some way to make money?

Has this not been a thing for 10 years?

I wonder how this (on a raspi 4) compares to mathematica we used to use in ~1995 at uni on HPPA machines with <1GB RAM?
