  21. I love Systat for the Mac, it was the first truely comprehensive statistics
  22. package.  It is powerful and easy to use.

  24. I bought Statview and Data Desk and was disappointed by both,though I've
  25. heard they have both improved significantly.  Systat disappointed others when
  26. it first came out because it originally wasn't too "mac-like", but they fixed
  27. that quickly.
