I have been having a world of trouble getting my hands on SPSS software (from problems
\nfinding an online retailer who would accept my academic verification
\nas a new ODU student to problems with the software being on backorder
\nafter I was told it shipped). In desperation, I went to the SPSS
\ncorporate site and did a search under “SPSS grad pack” and found a link
\nto an authorized online vendor where you can obtain a download of the
\nmost current version of the software (v16) under either a 6 or 12 month
\n“rental agreement” – note that you are renting a license <\/span>of the product versus purchasing it.<\/p>\n

See: http:\/\/estore.e-academy.com\/<\/span><\/span><\/font><\/a><\/p>\n

I
\nchose the 6 month rental for $79 which can be renewed at the same rate.
\nI was able to obtain the necessary academic verification by simply
\nusing my ODU.edu e-mail account. The entire process from registering on
\nthe site to installing and setting up the software took about 20
\nminutes. I just tested my install and it works like a charm!!! Given
\nthe way software is so frequently updated, I think renting a license
\nmight be a nice alternative to buying the software – plus I had the
\nsoftware downloaded and installed in less than 30 minutes!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
