The American Heritage Dictionary defines the term (their word of the year) as "a digital recording of a radio broadcast or similar program, made available on the Internet for downloading to a personal audio player"
as opposed to a recording which can be downloaded, but not to a portable player? What might that be? Just because whoever wrote that definition for the American Heritage dictionary is clueless does not mean that we have to be too. You, however, are free to refer to them as the final authority on everything.

> I was in France a couple of weeks ago and saw some fruit stands in Paris that worked based on customers' honesty. The fruit were in cardboard boxes on the sidewalk, you picked whatever you wanted and stepped into the store to pay. Are French people so honest that they will always pay the price? I don't think so.
You must be an american. I find it extremely funny that this is surprising for you. I don't know about france but this is the de-facto way of selling for all types of stores in Japan. Not just fruits and vegetables, but cosmetics, toys, books, CD's etc. as well. Yes, people ARE that honest in other parts of the world. Why, in a Tokyo suburb called kokobunji, I have first hand seen unmanned fruit stalls on hiking trails where you pick what you want and drop the money in a cardboard box.
Nice... a wikipedia entry based on one source from India says Indians invented zero.
See "Zero: The Biography of a Dangerous Idea"
Nice, a book based on one source (a single author) to discredit a wikipedia entry which is created, edited and maintained by thousands of people from all over the world!

I have never used Excel on Mac before. However, I will most certainly try and run some simulations using LINEST. I have previously been able to find bugs or poorly implemented functions in Excel on windowos, e.g. XNPV function, but never something which made me stop using excel for serious professional work.I am curious to find out if the LINEST function has a bug on the windows version of excel.I will certainly let you know what I find.
I have been using excel heavily for financial modelling for a long time now and the type of scenario that you describe has never happened in the last six years. Some of the financial models are extremely complex with more than 40 variables changing value at every step of the calculation and I have never, ever seen "different computers give different results". The financial models we use result in investments in billions of dollars and yes, we use excel like our lives depend on it.I would venture to say that the people I work with are "professionals". This type of anomaly simply does not happen. My guess is that you or people who created this macro do not know how to use excel and it's functions correctly. I doubt that your so called "macro" is anything more than a function writtenby someone with at best a half-baked knowledge of VBA and excel. Your problem is not excel, but a lack of knowledge of how to use it.

So why on earth would you not just implement both and let us choose? cause then they will have to give away two laptops instead of one.

A seemingly insightful quote by a dead guy reflects stupidity on the part of the dumbass who quotes it.

Not to be pedantic but zero is universally credited as having originated in Hindu India
Except that this is not Politics.

I am assuming that you are not trolling.
