Re: Quattro Pro

"Ah, Quattro Pro. The best looking spreadsheet in the Dos/Win3.1 era."

The native windows 9x port was utter s^&t, however, and the 3.1 version did *not* play well with windows 9x either.

I have memories of having to download very large patch files for the WP suite (as in multi-hundred MB files) to fix some significant bugs in that app suite, and this was in the days where dialup was still king, and only big multi-nationals had anything faster than a T1 for internet connectivity, if they even had connectivity.

I didn't say they were _fond_ memories, did I?
