I'm really impressed that you did that (& that you have a plan for it) 

Yeah.  I had to learn via Playboy and 2nd dates.

*gasp!* How dare you besmirch Excel!?

You mean like mentioning how they stole exactly every feature from Lotus 123?

 

[MadamPirate PE]

Only if you talk about pivot charts too. I use those in my budget spreadsheet .

I love pivot tables. I get excited when I get to do them as part of my job.

Sorry, who? Because I'm mid-30's and dunno who that is.

I'm mid 30's and know exactly what Lotus 123 is. I had to use it for 4 years in DOS on an IBM PC-XT until I was lucky enough to get a PC with Win 95 and Office.

I used to teach an intro to engineering class and it's amazing the number of kids coming out of high school that have never opened excel. What the hell are they teaching kids in high school that's more important than excel?

I remember we used Lotus 123 a physic lab class. Then we printed some results on a dot matrix printer.

Oh wow the 10"....what a beast lol.

Well not really a "beast", just big.  It didn't hold much in terms of RAM.  The 3.5" held much more than the previous bigger sizes.  I remember seeing an old 10" lying around for the first time and I was like wtf is that? lol
