Science Center Lines: 14 Keywords: WYSIWYG, statistics, equations, editors I am not sure about word processing (I use Word, which is decent but not outstanding for equations). There are two excellent econometrics programs for the MAC, RATS and SHAZAM. RATS has, I think, the better graphics package, but is somewhat less friendly (though much more powerful). Both programs are time series oriented, with SHAZAM possibly being a bit more flexible. RATS is distributed by VAR, somewhere near Chicago, and SHAZAM by Ken White, Dept. of Econ., UBC. I have no connection with either group, other then spending about 5 hours a day with RATS. Neal Beck Dept. of Gov. Harvard U.
