in your article your said that EXCEL 2.2 does not work. well if you
have it installed on a machine which has a coprocessor you cannot get
it work. This applies also to IIsi. These new machines don't have
coprocessors. You can get EXCEL work if you will have a c "clean"
copy which NEVER has been in any machine. The problem is that excel
looks up the machine and writes into itself what kind of machine you have.

if you can obtain a clean copy then use that if not use PEKKALA's suggestion
and get FPU init from SUMEX-AIM.Stanford.edu info-mac for instance.
