I am not sure how best to answer your question since the phrases 
"user-friendly" and "like SPSS" do not belong in the same sentence in my mind 
(unless separated by a word along the lines of "unlike").  And "Windows Based 
Programming Language" feels a bit like an oxymoron.

But since the R Commander package exists (there are other tools as well, JGR, 
R-PLUS, others) and provides a menu/dialog interface to R, and since the Rexcel 
project integrates this into MS Excel so that the user can use the power of R 
without ever leaving Excel and realizing that they are using a superior tool, I 
expect the answer is "Yes".
