What do you need stats for?
I've used a number of programmes, including systat (there was a version back in 95 or so that I loved, great for entry and "cleaning" the data of human error).
For sheer power, SPSS is the cat's meow.
I had to learn SPSS 6.1 "under fire". Systat did not have enough power for the cross-tabs that were needed.
Back "then", I would enter the 1500 or so records, each with 50-75 observation. Push the button, and go home for the night. All that cranking away on a 25Mhz 040 machine.
