PSPP is GNU software. You can obtain it the same way as with any GNU software. PSPP should work on most modern computers and most operating systems. Systems which have been known to work include:
- GNU/Hurd
- GNU/Linux
- Mac OS X (Darwin)
- OpenBSD, NetBSD and FreeBSD
- Windows (either natively or with Cygwin)
Downloading the Source Code
If you want to compile and install PSPP yourself, you can get the source code from http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/pspp. Should this link be unavailable or unreasonably slow, please select a local mirror site. Once you have downloaded the tarball, refer to the INSTALL file for installation instructions. The PSPP wiki has some operating system-specific tips for installing PSPP as well.
Binaries
We do not distribute precompiled binaries of PSPP. Many operating systems provide such binaries, but these might not be the most up to date version. Refer to your operating system's instructions for details. Below is a list of some precompiled binary packages for various operating systems, of which we are aware. These are prepared by third parties over whom we have no control. The PSPP developers make no claims about the reliability of these packages. If you find a problem with them, ask the respective package maintainer and not the PSPP developers.

Development Version
If you want the latest “bleeding edge” version, development sources are available from the Savannah GIT repository. However, the installation procedure is more complex. It's recommended only for experienced hackers.
