I have a demo copy of Origin.  It seems a very capable program.  The version 
is 3.5, the price is $495 (U.S.) - there is a 20% educational discount.
The address is: Microcal Software, Inc.
		One Roundhouse Plaza
		Northampton
		MA 01060
		U.S.A.
		toll free number (800) 969-7720 (U.S. and Canada)

Another program is FigP.  I have used version 5 for Dos and liked it very 
much.  I obtained a demo of version 2.1 for Windows, but wasn't very 
impressed.  It just doesn't seem to be a very "polished" program as Windows 
programs go.  The cost of FigP is US $499.  The address for FigP is:
	Biosoft
	P.O. Box 10938
	Ferguson
	MO 63135
	U.S.A.
	tel. (314) 524-8029   fax. (314) 524-8129

There are many other addresses for other countries (for Origin) and a UK 
address for FigP.  Email me if you would like them.

Hope this helps.

Cheers
