MS Office 2008 review part 3 of 6 - Excel 
Posted by Gary Coyne on 06/26 at 08:02 AM 
Excel, under the original name Multiplan, was one of the first Macintosh
software programs, long before there ever was a Windows. Now, after all
these years, this staple of office, financial, and scientific
calculation is still commanding respect. And despite the fact that a
number of people still try to use it as a database (e.g., storing
rosters, et. al., something that spreadsheets are not really good at),
there are still a few new tricks with this version.
