It's an Affymetrix thingie, so the BioC list would be the more obvious
place to ask. Notice that there are R data packages, e.g.

http://biowww.dfci.harvard.edu/~bioconductor/data/cdfenvs/Win32/mgu74av2cdf_0.1.zip

and (if I understand correctly) S-PLUS data libraries like

http://www.insightful.com/support/ArrayAnalyzer/DataLibs/CDFLibs/mgu74cv2cdf.zip

and I suspect they are not interchangeable even though both come in
.zip files.
