Over in comp.unix.i386, there was a quote by a guy from ISC which said that
he was a part of a group at Interactive which ported 1-2-3 to Interactive's
386/IX using gcc and gmake.  The same 1-2-3 which lotus wants big $$ for
(well, by DOS standards, maybe - for Unix they're "reasonable" at less than
$1000).

I almost thought that I was reading rec.humor.funny, but I checked (I missed
the orignial posting), and it was apparently a real quote.

It's sick, if you ask me.
