Definitely Octave
 
You should tryout sage: http://www.sagemath.org/

It includes Maxima (and optionally Octave), and lots of other mathematics free software. It is definitely the best free software CAS (and it's got a great community).

I use SciLab, which like Octave, is nothing more than a MATLAB clone.
