Doesn't MIT have a reasonable collection of statistical packages?
Probably with site licenses, so it wouldn't cost anything to a member of
the community (student or faculty). If not, Minitab has inexpensive
academic prices (that, I gather, they don't much advertise).
For factorial designs, look for "ANOVA" or "Analysis of variance", or
"general linear model" (GLM); for response surface analyses, look for
"multiple regression".
