According to Barbara Maxwel of Synergy SW:
"A version of KaleidaGraph that will take advantage of system 7.0 will not be
available until next year, but the current version will continue to function as
it does now, even if you are running under system 7.0".

Both Igor (currently 1.24 and System 7 compatible according to the publisher)
and KaleidaGraph allow you to analyze and plot data. 
I think that Igor does the former better while KaleidaGraph the latter.
