Thanks! Interesting! Perhaps there was a patch to Excel later on, because
otherwise, this does not explain things. Anyway, regardless, good to know that
the long-standing issue has been fixed.
The title of your e-mail post is amusing!

FWIW, both Excel 2007 and LibreOffice 4.2 yield the correct variance for
the numbers in Ranjan Maitra's HW problem for incoming students in R.
Namely, both these programs yield a sample variance of 0.28
(rounded to 10 decimal digits).
