I would like to ask your advice on which statistical package I should
buy.

I am doing research in the field of infectious diseases and need a
package for general epidemiological analysis. However, I also need to be
able to perform Monte Carlo simulations for uncertainty analysis (this
is for an estimation of the world market for TB drugs). I work in
Macintosh environment.

I have considered STATA6 and SPSS10 (which will be released soon for
Mac), but would like some expert opinions before chosing one of them or
perhaps another package. Previously I have used @risk (www.palisade.com)
with Excel, but I understand that one does not work with Mac. Is there
anything similar available for mac.

Thank you in advance
