- You might also want to check out:
-
- * SPSS for the Mac - probably does all the stats you want, but has a
- mainframe-style interface and no graphics (as opposed to Systat,
- which has a mainfram-style interface with decent graphics, at least
- last time I looked at it.) Disclaimer: I used to work for SPSS Inc.
-
- * DataDesk. Has a _very_ nice Mac-like user interface, but I'm not sure
- if it does cluster analyses. A educational psychologist I worked with
- just converted from Systat to DataDesk and loves it.
-
- * JMP from SAS Institute. Has a fairly nice interface, but not as nice as
- DataDesk. I'm not too sure if it does all the stats you want.
-
- I hope this helps.
