[R] re: Spatial stats: R vs. Splus

[Kenneth Nordstrom]

Hello,

Could someone tell me whether the spatial statistics module of
Splus is worth the rather high price, or whether one could (with
reasonable effort) carry out the same things using R and some of
its contributed packages. 

Although we do have Splus (Windows and Unix), we definitely prefer 
to use R whenever feasible (both for research and teaching).

Thanks for developing a superb computing/programming environment.

Kenneth Nordström
