Excel Fails Math Test, open source is important

I hope nobody is using Excel for researching time travel :wink:

Try OpenOffice, the open source alternative that doesn’t have math problems because the source code is public and PEER REVIEWED.

Also another story that would be better suited on a general board…which we lack… but certianly little to do with time travel. ALOT more to do with computer programing. Proly better suited on Cnet.

bogz,

Great information. I agree with Titorite that both of your recent computing problem posts aren’t really time travel related. But the information itself is important.

I PM’d Raul (MOP) and asked him if he can add a General Discussion forum to the forum list. We’ll see.

In the mean time I don’t think that you’ll get too many complaints for making notifications about useful computing issues.

Thanks for the heads up.

BTW: I don’t use too many open source programs but I do love The Gimp. It’s a lot more powerful than PhotoShop and one hell of a lot less expensive - like free. :wink:
