I really have to wonder how they can afford doing that (I'm assuming
this whole thing is completely legal.) Maybe they got some kind of
odd deal with Wolfram Research.

It's just a bit odd, because there are free math software out there
as well. Sure, most of them is not even nearly as good as Mathematica,
but still...

(By the way, personally I really like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PARI/GP
which is a nice piece of math software usable on the command line.)
