RE: Mathcad Prime 3 compatibility
But I am not sure if Prime3 already is certified for Win8 by PTC.

RE: Mathcad Prime 3 compatibility
Are you new to Mathcad or do you already use Mathcad 15 (or below). I am asking as I think that Prime3 still isn't good enough to change from MC15 to. And MC15 seems to run pretty well with Win8 - at least for me as I use Prime just for playing around to get used to, not for serious work. But I remember some useres in the community reported of problems with MC15 and Win8 (especially with 3D plots, I think). Of course if you are new to MC it may make sense to use Prime as it will be (unfortunately) the future of Mathcad and it won't make much sense learning use the old interface.
RE: Mathcad Prime 3 compatibility
As for Prime, the jury is still out and will be out until probably MP5. Only now are they re-introducing ancient features as "new" in MP3, such as templates. Prime is a bit more "designed" in the sense that there is a feature set that is "designed" into the GUI, like solve blocks. Mathcad had been more or less ad hoc-ly added to over years as they developed more features. There were a couple attempts over the years to try and instill some design discipline, but those generally failed spectacularly.

RE: Mathcad Prime 3 compatibility
Those of us migrating from MC 13 /14 / 15 are still waiting for MC Prime to replace all of the features they took out from MC15 - and I suspect it'll take a couple of years for PTC to fill all the gaps.

"Belief" is the acceptance of an hypotheses in the absence of data.
