This article is an expansion of the notes to a one-hour lecture for an MSRI workshop on computational number theory. The editors of Mathematics of Computation kindly asked us to submit these notes for publication, and we are enormously pleased to do so. Our original audience did not consist of experts in the field of modular forms, and we have tried to keep this article accessible to nonexperts. We have made an experimental investigation of certain arithmetic conjec- tures using MACSYMA. This investigation requires a search for certain mod- ular eigenforms of high weight. These computations pose problems which we feel may be interesting on their own. We are novices here, and we seek advice from people more experienced in making computations of an analogous sort. We are, in fact, deeply grateful to J. F. Mestre, who came to our aid and who vastly extended our computations using PARI.1 Mestre has graciously allowed us to present his computations in this article. The kind of families we have in mind, as in the title of this lecture, has as its prototypical example the standard family of classical Eisenstein series of level 1 and weight k for k = 4, 6, 8, ... , whose Fourier expansions are given by oo
