feel better jeff. I'll send over some grumpy bearded dwarves to wake you up in a few hours by jumping on your bed while wearing lingerie and poking you with pimp canes.

If you really want to know the range, I'll PM it to you
Curious, but it wouldn't do me any good.

OpenOffice

It's what I use on my Mac. Runs under X11... oh and it's free
I've found OpenOffice's Excel equiv (Calc) to be a lot more powerful than the latest Office Excel...

For one, Calc can handle nested If statements... Excel cannot.
