Currently use SPSS and I am more than happy with it. However, in a previous life, when I worked as an analyst on an HIV/AIDS project I used SAS. Working as an epidemiologist I found SAS easier to program for that particular type of work. But, that is just my opinion.

We need this for beginners (me) as well as more experience people involved in biological research. The common tests that we use are: general linear model univariate, multivariate, repeated measures, regressions as well as data reduction and transformations. Any info would be appreciated.
