Currently we deal with analytic geometry in class, and I am looking for an application to visualize vectors in a 3D coordinate plane. A Java applet might do the trick, as well as a Windows XP application. I prefer a non-Java, non-Windows solution, however. Thx.

Remember the old graphing calculator in OS 9 days? I wish we still had it around, but this one may help. Not free, though.
I do not like those green links and spam.

Tiger ships with Grapher, which is much nicer than the older Graphing Calculator. I'm not it portrays vectors, though.

Yes, it does. Just sift through the 3d examples.
