Since when does the 'Standard' do any justice...  Just look at all those
who deem the IB* as standard - we all know how much they are missing,
since the Amiga is far superior regardless of its acceptance...

Where spread sheets are concerned, MicroSoft Excell is for more versatile
and user friendly than L123 could ever hope to be...  Yet because it is
not the 'standard' we are to ignore it and settle for an inferior
product???!

I make up my own mind ....  (sounds like an ad slogan - now where
                             have I heard that before??? ;^{)  ).
