Lol. 300 baud. Certainly not web surfing worthy.

Lotus 123. Great program! The precursor to Excel. Whoever created it was brilliant. I use Excel 10x a day.

I use Excel constantly. The ability to pull data from Azure databases, SharePoint lists, and other sources and to combine datasets is powerful.

Excel's predecessor was MSFT's Multiplan, which was superior to Lotus 1-2-3 in many ways.

Our corporation foolishly standardized on Lotus, but I insisted that all the Technicians in our departments learn & use Multiplan. That helped them later, when Excel became dominant.
