I would say Apple if anyone. Basically Microsoft did some things utilizing the
way the System worked. When Apple upgraded, they had to implement changes in
order to make room for the IIci and the portable. It was Apple's change in arch
etechture that screwed things up.

Anyway, as far is Excel is concerned they can not be help liable for changes in
 the environment that are beyond their control.

Noone is forcing you to upgrade to the new system, therefore you CAN still use
their software. So I think the breach of contract does not apply. They did NOT
say that it would work with your version of the software, only the older
version.
