kash, I've just spent MINUTES waiting for an Excel chart to load which is part of a 20 meg document. In fact, only one of three of these charts was embedded as an Excel chart, the others were Microsoft "picture" format, because it takes 10 seconds just to scroll over a page than contains an Excel embedded chart. That means that engineers here are not able to see the original data when they review documents.

Now, granted, most people here only have 400 MHz or so, but I am looking forward to a very much faster machine. In fact, I'm finishing this work at home tonight because there I have a decent machine! (1.33 Athlon/DDR)

In the last report I wrote, the file size would have been >100 megs if I did it the right way and would have been totally unmanageable on anything other than a GHz machine or faster.
