I thought R users might be interested (surprised) to hear that R will have
some competition on Linux now.

Yea, they've been saying this for months!  A Statsci rep told me
at the joint meetings last year that it would be out in October,
it wasn't, and then they had a press release in late november or something
and it still wasn't out.  In any case, it's only $5000 for a single user
license, according to the rep I spoke with.  Contrast that with the
$1200 Windows license.....(of course, the multi user functionality  that
is implicit in *nix os's is factored in).
