I don't want to sound like an add but, I'm running Lotus 1-2-3 and am very
happy with it.  It does take up 7MB of precious disk space and would 
probably run faster if I had a co-processor.  However, I'm happy because of
the price.

I just recently purchased AT&T's UNIX SVR3.2.3, 16 user license with 
developement set, Old C and ANSI C.  AT&T gave me free of charge Lotus
1-2-3 multi-user edition for UNIX System V, 10 user license.  This retails
for $1295.00.  All DOS Lotus spreadsheet files are usable as is, after you
copy them to the UNIX filesystem using doscp(1).
