Statistical software for Mac - who can advise?
We are searching for a good statistical software for Macintosh.

Our criteria:
- statistical quality
- wide range of statistics, including multivariate and exploratory analysis
- nice *and* theoretically correct graphic facilities
- satisfying for a statistician
- easy to use for empirical researchers,
  the system should have typical Mac-facilities
- suitability for educational purposes,
  help-facilties as to statistical functions
  (statistics for medical post-graduate students)

Two possible considered candidates are MacSYSTAT and STATISTICA.

I have obtained a MacSYSTAT 5.3-version for a free trial and my first
experiences are very positive as to the above mentioned criteria.
A colleague asked me about STATISTICA, but I have no experience with it
and it was not possible to obtain a demo version.

I would be very glad for comments/advices from anybody, who has experience
with SYSTAT and/or STATISTICA (and/or what else) on MacIntosh.

Thanks in advance !
