Upshot to original poster: If octave does what you need, use it.
If not, extend it, pay jwe to extend it, or use matlab.

I use both matlab and octave on either windows or linux,
depending on the project.  But then again I am more interested
in using the tools than making them.  Sometimes, when you just 
need to build something, it makes much more sense to start a 
screw with a hammer rather than waste time chasing down a drill motor,
extension cord and the correct bit.  If you get my drift.
If you don't never mind.
