I'm an avid R user. If you're new I would recommend R in a Nutshell. It's concise and if you already know a scripting language, R will be a easy transition. Also it's handy for quick references.
For really amazing graphics I would highly recommend the R Graphics Cookbook. Easy to follow examples and sexy-ass figures.
I'm a computational biologist and I have never seen anyone use SAS except for maybe older people. I learned a little bit in undergrad for a stats class, but I just used R instead lol. MatLab is also powerful and highly used, I might start trying that too.
Good luck.
I'd recommend reading R in a nutshell.
www.r-bloggers.com is my favourite site, if I'm ever looking for a how-to guide I will click their links first.
The only book I have bought on R is R In A Nutshell, but I didn't find it very useful.
