This is typical of why MS gets to put out mediocre junk. Half of what Excel has is just a copy of what Wingz had before. There are alternatives (for example Wingz) that are not only as good. But aren't bloated and slow (I've read message from people in France where MS has put out ads appologizing for the latest version of Word and Excel). > ROTFL. Sorry, but in the real (ie business) world, MS is king, and > the OS that has problems running it (ie MacOS) won't last long. The OS runs it just fine. The problem is that the software is bloated and slow. Heck, as far as I'm concerned even going from Excel 5 to Excel 4 is an upgrade.
