Gnumeric 1.0 Has Arrived
plastercast writes: "Gnumeric 1.0 is now out, which makes the Gnome desktop even more 1.0-tastic, with the recent milestones of Galeon and Evolution. ... For those that do not know, Gnumeric is a spreadsheet program with the ability to include all sorts of neat bonobo objects, and also can create graphs through guppi, the Gnome graping program. Enjoy!" Update: 12/31 20:08 GMT by T : That's "graphing." Graping is for the stroke of twelve. Update: 12/31 21:01 GMT by T : Jody Goldberg writes "You folks posted the story a touch too quickly. The release announcement just went out 5 minutes ago."
It's nice to see that they're developing Gnome's own competitive options. I may have to try it out again, though IceWM on OpenBSD beats both KDE and Gnome hollow, in my estimation.

Excuse me best? excel .... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
oh gawd you are funny. Excel is far from best at anything.
it cant do calculations right, (search slashdot, you'll find the stories, and search google. several professors will fail students in chemistry and advanced physics for using excel because it doesn't do advanced math correct. (97,98 and 2000 dont.. noone knows about XP as the entire scientific arena have abandoned it. but I bet that XP is nothing but 2000 with pretty colors)
Only an idiot uses excel for anything important... and I have the entire upper management of my company to prove it!

Oh F*CK OFF! What F*CKING alternate reality did you just beam in from arsehole ? 99.99% of folks out there use computers and the software therein as a tool, nothing more nothing less.
The majority of staff will be handed and required to use the timesheet tool developed by HR. The opportunity the roll your own does not enter the equation, or is that concept too C*nting complex for your addled brain to handle f*ckwit? Makework has nothing to do with it.

That maybe something to do with your repeated attempts to pull the mickey off yourself (thats "whacking off" to our american brethern who may not understand colloquial Irish dialect), wanking furiously over the changelogs of 2.4. "- Fix loop device deadlock (AA) Urrghhh!!!! - Correctly mark ext2 sb as dirty and sync it (AM) Oh Jesus! Arrgghh! DIRTY FS I'M Coming"
Its sick b*stards like you who crawl out of the woodwork and make it plain and obvious to all, that you have absolutely no f*cking clue to what happens in the real word.
Life sucks sometimes, but dont exacerbate that fact coming over as a holier than thou Open Sores onanist.
Until a 100% compatible Office is developed for linux or any other *nix, it will have zero penetration on the desktops of any large corporate period.
Thats the hard fact. All the mindless bollocks over what toolkit is politcally correct is f*cking inane when applications cant even agree on what consitutes a common file dialog. Way to go people, this is way to win friends and interest people. The solution is obvious. But completely beyond the average 2 hundredweight xenophobe with a personal hygiene problem that compromises the vanguard of the
The amount of complete shite I have seen uttered in the name of so called Open Source over the past 6-9 months is just mindless beyond belief.
Get a f*cking job idiots in real world idiots, one that does not involve gobbling ( translation: Blowing) RMS & grow up!
