I must agree with the general comment that LaTeX merits inclusion as a tool to be considered. I'm using LaTeX with R, Python, and PostgreSQL to run some involved data analysis. In a matter of days I was able to script and run work that would have taken months to do manually. From this report output I was very easily able to use graphs and extract text into a very usuable presentation using the FoilTeX library for LaTeX in a matter of hours.

Thanks for the introduction to LaTeX beamer; it looks like a nice package which I'm sure I'll use in the future.
