Introduction
The University of Delaware licenses a limited number of copies of
SPSS for microcomputers. The primary
modules consist of the SPSS/Base, Regression Models (formerly Professional
Statistics), and Advanced Models (formerly Advanced Statistics). Other
modules may be available in very limited quantities for an additional
fee.
The last version of SPSS released for other platforms is version 6.1.
This document describes the procedures for obtaining a copy, the conditions
of use, and the installation procedure for microcomputers owned by faculty,
full-time staff or the University. Installation requires special license
codes which expire annually. Initial and annual renewal license codes will
be sent to registered faculty and staff who use the on-line registration
forms below.
How much will the software cost me?
The charge for each license is approximately $25/year/computer. This covers three modules: SPSS/Base, Regression Models, and Advanced
Models.
(Students wanting a copy for their own microcomputers should purchase the
SPSS Graduate Pack. The cost is approximately $200 for the three
modules. It is available from JourneyEd.

companion to the SPSS User's Guides.
