Try WingZ. I had used Excel 1.5 and decided to try WingZ.  I would never go
back to Excel. WingZ is an excellent spread sheet for engineering applications.It has the kind of graphics that engineering requires, i.e., contour and 
surface plots. These plots are extremely easy to generate and the quality is 
excellent.  I understand that Version 2.0 will allow combination of surface
and contour plots.  In addition, WingZ has excellent array of advanced math
functions which are e a s y to use (matrix operators, stats, etc...).  Plus
the hyperscript language is wonderful to use.  Unlike Excel which is just
darn to cryptic (ie assembly language like). 

I have nothing to do with the company that makes WingZ.
