R vs SPSS

Dear all,

in last weeks you discussed about R vs SAS. 
I want to ask your opinion about a comparison between
R and SPSS. I don't know this software, but some weeks
ago I went to a presentation of this product. I found
it really user-friendly with GUI (even if I'd prefer
command line) and very usefull and simple to use in
creation and managing tables, OLAP tecniques, pivot
table.
What you think about?
Cordially
