Hello Group, I rang the local Office Shop and enquried about a program called Excel. Obviously she misunderstood me because she gave me a price for Windows XL. I have no idea how much everyone else is paying for this ,but $1,079 ?? . Would that be correct? Any tiny thought I had of an eventual upgrade have been blown to bits. I have worked out that, if I save for the next 2 years I might be able to afford it, but by then there will probably been a couple of new releases anyhow. Ah well, good ol' 98 will have to do.
