There isn't a $20 scientific calculator that isn't able to display in
Engineering Notation, and yet this spreadsheet is still having discussions about
it. Engineers are the ones who can influence others to use Open Office, yet why
would the promote a tool that they can't use because it doesn't provide a basic
format in their daily use?

I like Open Office, but the spreadsheet is useless to me in over half of the
tasks I would need to use it in. Believe me, I do not want to use the "other"
product offering, but it is a necessary evil.

It's really just putting the numbers so they have exponents in multiples of 3
and from one to three digits to the left of decimal point, that's it. Forget the
G, M, k, m, n, u for now... that's fluff. Just get the exponents to display in
engineering notation and many people will be happy.
