It really depends on what you want to use it for. I don't know about Phenics, but I've using Fluent for quite a long time. Fluent runs almost perfect on UNIX workstations, but on PC, I would say about 75-80% as good as on UNIX.

For educational purpose, I would recommend you get the older version of Fluent v4.X as well, which only supports structured grid, and for simple problems, you can generated the mesh and solve all in Fluent (now in Fluent 5, you need Gambit for the model).

Otherwise Fluent5 & Gambit is the choice.
