Hi Arthur: 

That would be a savings... Has Microsoft released a beta or an alpha version yet?

Jim, 

I agree. But the current situation requires that you first export the data set from SQL Server or whatever DB is your choice, and then use R to analyze the exported data. MS claims that implementing R in a sandbox inside SQL would eliminate that middle step. So I've read, anyway.
