I don't much like MS application software, but the OS seems fine to me.

Whattya...nuts? Excel is a dream, and has been from day one!


I use it, but I don't enjoy it, probably because I don't use it enough to
be really proficient with it. My client audiences glaze over when they see
too many spreadsheets or graphics presentations made up from spreadsheets.
They see far too many Excel spreadsheets in their daily work.

Some of the Moz mopes should be chained to the desks where the Excel
programmers do their jobs. Right from the beginning, so many things were
done right. Once, I had 5 minutes to finish entering data into a spreadsheet
for a customer, and my monitor died. I was able to finish because the
program's got a hot key shortcut for pretty much every menu command. (All
software should have this, by law). Commands which worked fine from version
1 have been left alone right up until now, so there's no need to relearn
anything.
