I downloaded the trial version and during the installation it told me that I had to install R first (from CRAN). So it looks like the R-PLUS interface is separate from R. They do not distribute R with R-PLUS. I'm in no way associated with this company, and I don't want or need a GUI for my own work. And its a Windows program. So I won't be using R-PLUS.

We distribute R-PLUS. But your web site claims, in big capital letters, that R-plus is "THE REAL R". If you are not distributing R (the real real R, (c) The R Foundation), then this could be construed as false advertising. So I'm guessing that R-plus must be an add-on to the real real R, in which case you can't distribute R with R-plus under a non-free license. You can unbundle it though, and tell your users to 'first go get R'. I can't find an installation guide or a decent FAQ that confirms this. As a non-lawyer, I'd advise you to remove 'The Real R' from the web site and instead put 'Works With The Real R'. And explain this in the FAQ. And give a link to www.r-project.org. Oh, btw, I'd fix your blog links: go to: http://www.experience-rplus.com/blog.asp?b=act and click a screenshot...
