If you can't beat R, join R.

Should someone start a pool on when SAS will offer 'R language
support' ??
It is already in place, albeit not from Cary:

See the link for "A Bridge to R for SAS Users".
That product might put an interesting spin on:

Jim Gustafsson: I would like to put my SAS-code into R. Could I do

Frank Harrell: Just reverse the procedure you use when you put R code
into SAS. ;)

Their WPS product has been getting a fair amount of attention, at least
for those needing mostly "Base" and not "Stat" functionality at
substantially less cost than the SAS commercial license pricing.
Correction. WPS is actually a product of "Word Programming", which is at:
http://www.teamwpc.co.uk/products/wps
though at the moment, I am having trouble getting to their web page.
There is a Wikipedia page here:

Minequest is providing SAS to WPS related consulting services.
