Mike,

I am by no means math challenged...at least I am a whiz at workshop geometry. When it comes to spreadsheets and the math behind them, I don't have a clue.

In fact, I don't even know what a spreadsheet is or why what they do is so appealing. Up til now, I don't think I've had a reason to use them...about like you and cell phones. I do remember that early on Visi Calc gave people in accounting a reason to buy an Apple, and that 1-2-3 was a killer app for the PC. Today, I guess it's MS Excel that most people use.

I've never seen one on a computer, and so, if someone cares to give me (and maybe others) a brief summary of just what these things are, I'd be all ears. So tell me, just what is a spreadsheet and what do they do that would make them useful to an investor?
