   I'm thinking about doing some videos where I show that yes, you can do the "modern" spreadsheet stuff on classic DOS spreadsheets.

   And I do love a good DOS spreadsheet. ❤️🤓

     @freedosproject Honestly most office software became feature complete sometime around the early-mid 90s at the latest and ever since then it has just been features for the sake of features.

     *where this comes from:

     I sometimes teach university classes, including an "intro to tech" class that includes how to use spreadsheets.

     I have some labs I'd like to do with DOS spreadsheets. 😎

     Some of those labs are kind of basic spreadsheet stuff, but some are pretty advanced, especially if you haven't used DOS spreadsheets before. 🤩

     @allison I agree! 👍

     A lot of "features" now are old features on a faster CPU.
