IDL and PV-Wave comparison [message #1341]

Hi,

I am interested in purchasing IDL but recently became
aware of PV-Wave. PV-WAVE is more expensive (about 2x) and I was
just wondering
1. Is PV-WAVE a superset of IDL?
2. What are the differences, if any?

FYI. Our site is all unix (mainly Suns) and we run f77,c and MATLAB.
We require good data visualisation software and can't afford AVS
which is about 5x the cost of IDL (per user).

Any info greatly appreciated.

Cheers
-Phil
