Hello, Wayne:

As far as I know, the New York Hall of Science has the only complete  
copy of Mathematica: A World of Numbers.  Boston had a complete copy,  
but has retired some of the exhibits as they became unworkable.  We  
have repaired the guts of the math cube, the probability machine, and  
the moebius strip, everything else has been working pretty reliably.   
We also added a very nicely designed computer kiosk at the end of the  
math wall (which ends in the 60's) to update it to 2005, with the help  
of the American Mathematical History Society (might not be the right  
name.)

We purchased Mathematica from CSC after they refurbished and traveled  
it, and did a permanent reinstallation based upon advice we got from  
the Eames Foundation.   We have the Mathematica Peep Shows also, which  
are wonderful 2 minute films made by the Eames, but we have not made a  
kiosk to show them yet.

It is a brilliant exhibition in its own right, and fits perfectly in  
the 1964 Worlds Fair building that is at the core of the Hall's  
facility.  Its on a mezzanine of classics, as it is right by Seeing  
the Light, which was donated to the Hall by IBM when we re-opened in  
the 80's (and which we have also refurbished).

Where is it in Atlanta?

Come up and see it sometime!
