Re: lotus

I had a colleague who took all of the 1,2,3 functions seriously:-

1 - Spreadsheet - Yes that's what we bought it for.

2 - Database - Sigh, it saved him having to keep logging into the Rdb/VMS database. OK until he added stuff and didn't put them back into Rdb.

3 - Wordprocessor - So he didn't have to learn WordPerfect. Yes he wrote multipage technical reports in 123 without headings, then printed multiple copies with his local small dot-matrix sprocket printer...
