by Harry Kalogirou Do you trust Microsoft Excel to do your financial plans? Do you count on it for business matters? Do you even use it as a calculator?
Think again… since Excel can’t even multiply correctly!!
I wonder how they accomplished such a thing! What kind of COM, CORBA and VB should you be calling for a multiplication to make it have a bug!?
p.s. If I recall correctly there was a bug like that in the calculator that came with a previous version of Windows…

Actually, it does your calculations correctly, it just doesn’t display it properly.
If you put it in a graph, then it shows the correct value (even though the cell doesn’t).
Check out Joel on Software for more details on it.
