I agree, I would expect R should attract researchers from Universities where money can be an issue, R being both free and open source and available for both Linux and Win32.
It could be that because R has been more focused on the areas of data analysis (although it is of course not limited to that only).
I personally love the package and do all kinds of calculations in it, though mostly statistics/data stuff.
