Are there any good STATISTICS programs available for Amiga hardware (say an Amiga 3000 or better)? Are there any good GRAPHING programs, also? I am looking for commercial pgms of power/quality equiv or better than the Mac's Statview II (by Abacus Concepts) and Kaleidagraph (by Synergy Software). I run an Amiga 1000 at home (yes, I am considering the new upgrade offer; I'll call my dealer as soon as I log off of my local node) and a Mac and PDP-11/44 scientific DP lab at work. If the answer to either of the above is yes, then, what additional hardware (coprocessors, etc) are available to help such pgms run faster (Multiple ANOVAs are really computebound). Apologies to all if this is the wrong group for this question. It just occurred to me because of the new upgrade news; .... :)

The price keeps changing, it's real hard to keep track of, but assuming your school has no special relationship with them, it should be about $300-$400 or so. It requires 10MB of hard drive space available, but that is all. You probably WANT an 030, but then the A3000 comes with one. How convenient. 8-) Maple is a general all-purpose math package with (currently) 2-D graphing capabilities similar to Mathematica. -- Ethan "Brain! Brain! What is Brain?"

I believe OXXI has announced a statistics package. You can get their number from an Amazing Computing, I'm sure. I have been happy with the telecom program they sell, for what that's worth. Dan Taylor
