[Phys-l] Replacement program for Interactive Physics



I am just beginning the process of finding a "substitute" for Interactive Physics as my computers are being upgraded. The new Mac computers don't run classic and IP doesn't work on OS X. Does anyone have any suggestions for a physics simulation program that runs on OS X.

BTW, I used to work a LOT with IP and I still consider it to have BEEN one of the best pedagogical software resources ever developed for physics instruction. But the publishers have been unforgivably derelict in supporting and improving the product and have chosen instead to milk their once fanatical and ever dwindling user base with silly and very expensive "upgrades." When they abandoned OS X, I most reluctantly hung up my IP hat for good.

You can look at some of the modules I wrote on my IP page at
