What about a Unix system without a compiler? ;)
With less than 50Mb of usefull software, you can compile and gain more 
performance than generic bin for your own stats. 

Look at:
install.packages		-> es. install.packages("Rcmdr")
update.packages()	-> es. update.packages()
library()			-> es. library(car), library(lattice)
