When we get our new UNIX machine next year I am interested in the possibility
of bringing in either SAS or PSTAT as an alternative to SPSS-X. I understand
that SAS can, as at Cambridge University, cause system problems if not
installed on specific IBM machines and would welcome comments thereon.
I have the impression that Roald Buhler's PSTAT acts well in interactive
situations but have the impression that he is a one-man-band. But my real
problem is that I don't really know much about what users can actually do
with these packages. Any information is welcome. Or should we stick to SPSS-X.

Thanks in advance.
