This is 'cool' .. just about like I thought it should have to be.
It does not work terribly well yet:
-- it is a bit on the slow side, with a response time of 30
minutes.
-- in my test the applet was invisible (although I had selected
'Java enabled').
-- it does not know about MATHML.
But I expect it will improve. I am glad it exists.
