Software Comparisons for Terabytes of Data?

["Robert Abugov" <bob@compete.com>]

Is there a best statistical software package for analysis of TERABYTES of
data pulled in from
a database? We're considering everything from SAS and SPSS to S Plus and
Minitab. And open to
other possibilities! Speed and programmability are key - we'll be doing
everything from
correlations to clustering. If you have any ideas on this - please let me
know!

Thanks,

Bob Abugov
