I especially like,
"Pfizer has created customized packages for R to let its scientists manipulate their own data during nonclinical drug studies rather than send the information off to a statistician."

Hi Folks,
Just a heads up: in today's Times, there is an article about R.
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/07/technology/business-computing/07program.html?partner=rss&emc=rss
SAS is given specific mention, but not Stata.
I did a search of the archives for a thread comparing R and Stata, and
I didn't turn up much. I wonder if this article is a good occasion
for us to list all the pros of Stata over R. =)
