I've tried Google's spreadsheet. It's simple and slow and why do it online? If you need a spreadsheet that bad, download the free OpenOffice.

Hells yes. I swear by OpenOffice.

"why do it online?"

Try to think conceptually - it makes perfect sense. As bandwidth increases, which it certainly is, so does the point of having web-based software.

When modems dialed in at 1200 baud (or less) no one could understand the point of graphic web pages. Then again few people think outside the box and that's where entrepreneurs are born.

Status quo in business gets you nowhere.

I don't think it's about what it is now. I think it's about what it can be. I could see a lot of possibilities in embedding a spreadsheet like this in a web page. Running this as an applet could be cool.
