R-June seems to be quite a bit unstable. I crashed it twice in 5
minutes on Win95 while playing with the new menus, and there have been
reports on not getting it to run at all on (some!) NT systems.
I think a better bet is Guido's port of R-0.61.3.
Personally, I'm split between upgrading to Guido's version or take
another semester with good ol' warts-n-all RSept. (Or pound like mad
at getting a version of 0.62.3 to work with the mingw32 compiler, but
my time seems to be sifting right through my fingers these days and I
haven't really got a clue about Win32 API programming.)
