Bill,
Personally I think PClamp bites.
Check the Axograph website again. It is available for PC now.
Although it's no longer in beta testing, Axograph X is still not
entirely bug free, even on Mac. But the detection works fine for us. I
haven't used the PC version.
But even with bugs I think it's better than most other packages. I am
not sure it will do the stats you need (but maybe). We always use
Prism for KS tests and such, after doing detection & measurement in
Axograph.
