As a relatively new Maple user I've ran into the message that the linalg package is superceded by the LinearAlgebra Package many times in the help pages.

However, after using many older titles that used relatively older versions of Maple to demonstrate applications, I've sometimes found many of the linalg packages very intuitive and user friendly in cases where the LinearAlgebra operation may have created a little confusion.

This blog entry is just my plea to Maplesoft to keep the linalg package.

I'm a little frightened that the act of superceding the linalg package is one of a few steps to eventually get rid the linalg package.

(This blog was also a cheap attempt of mine to finally get to 200.)
