“Is Lotus Notes still around?”

You won’t believe this .. I use a spreadsheet that’s 22 years old and yes it was made for Windows. Installed in 1993. Launch it daily to do my simple business accounting.

Anyone want to venture a guess? Made by Borland.

Quattro Pro.

I used it as well, for years.

It had a "Lotus 123" mode that made it very simple to transition from that product.

Don't tell me you're still using Lotus 1-2-3?

I haven't had it installed on any of our computers for a dog's age now, but way back when we were first in business, I used a template in Lotus to design our invoices and proposal forms.

I became so attached to the look of that form, that I later rebuilt it in MS Word. I still use it to this day.
