SSC Network Update

SPSS Version 9.0 Replaces Version 8.0

Peter Fewster

SPSS version 9.0 is now available on the SSC Network. You may install SPSS to run either from the Server or from your Hard Drive. The Hard Drive installation requires 78MB but substantially reduces the time it takes to run as compared to the Server installation.

This new version offers several improvements and enhancements over version 8.0. To see What's New in 9.0 go to www.spss.com/software/spss/spss90/. Once you have installed this version you can read about the new features in SPSS 9.0 by clicking on:
