I've had an inquiry into PC programs that perform survival analysis.   
Important functionality for the software to include are life tables and  
the ability to do Kaplan-Meier survival curves.  

Apparently, SAS can do these things, but..the use isn't interested in SAS.   
Can anyone suggest PC packages which have these capabilities?  I will
be glad to summarize for the list.

Thanks,

SPSS for Windows has a life table procedure, a Kaplan-Meier estimation
procedure and a proportional hazards or Cox regression procedure.

 Any correlation between my views and those of SPSS is strictly due to chance.

I think CSS:Statistica will do all of this too.
