    As far as I am concerned, Mr. Gates more than made up for Excel with
    Windows...

    Ja, so don't use it.

    ...Anyway, which came first - Excel or Lotus 123? Seems to me Lotus was
    out
    first, and Microsoft stole their lunch... Chuck Kuecker

    Ja, Lotus was first, and Visicalc was before
    either of those, but both Lotus and Excel made
    important contributions. Excel couldn'ta devoured
    Lotus' lunch if it wasn't better. Either way, its a
    first class engineering tool. Granted, windows
    is a last class system, and many of us are stuck
    using it, but at home we still have the Mac choice.
