I'll voice a heretic thought: me, I'm sticking with good old Numeric until the situation with the newer packages settles down. Yes, Numeric is not being developed any more, but to me that also means it won't "change under me" and break something... and, it serves my personal computational needs until something equally stable finally arrives. (Of course, if and when I hit some bug in Numeric that will never be solved, or need some other add-on package which in turn demands a different numeric-array-computation underpinning, I'll have to change, but, so far, I have not found myself in either of these situations).
