Every day I thank the stars that I've never had to use office software. I used Abiword for writing papers in school and you don't need Excel when you have APL instead. I've never once needed anything more than a text editor since then.
Forgive my ignorance...what's APL?
It's A Programming Language focused mainly on tables of numbers. It's like a spreadsheet but without the spreadsheet (and much slicker syntax).
