/* ---------- "Looking for "S"" ---------- */
I am looking for a statistical package to assist in performance analysis.
SAS is apparently the standard for the field, but is apparently not
available on UNIX - at least, my UNIX.

I'm investigating SPSS...

But I've heard about "S"... - can anybody tell me more about "S"?
Like, is it useful? Is there any truth to the rumour that it's available
to any UNIX system with source licence? Who do I contact?
    I am aware that there are commercial versions of "S", but I am most
interested in the plain, as close to public domain as possible, version.

I work on Gould machines, Powernodes and NPs, running UTX (BSD 4.3 with
a System V environment).

I always felt that disclaimers were silly and affected, but there are people
who let themselves be affected by silly things, so: my opinions are my own,
and not the opinions of my employer, or any other organisation with which I am
affiliated. I indicate my employer only so that other people may account for
any possible bias I may have towards my employer's products or systems.
