#lotus123 — Public Fediverse posts

I am proud with the fact that I 'wasted' my teenage years with MS-DOS, Windows 3.11, Netware, WordStar, Lotus123 and some other fantastic software.

Ah, the world was clearly clamoring for a Lotus 1-2-3 #reboot 🤔—because who wouldn't want a #spreadsheet that feels like it's stuck in the '80s but pretends to speak Excel? 🕹️ Apparently, #GitHub thinks this is #innovation, while the rest of us are still trying to figure out how to navigate their labyrinth of features. 🔍

The best post I've read this year! Currently learning how to do spreadsheets with Lotus 1-2-3 Release 4 for DOS (multiple worksheets per file is non-negotiable.)

🚀🎩 Oh look, a thrilling 33-minute ode to a fossilized spreadsheet—Lotus 1-2-3—because apparently, we're desperate for #nostalgia over functional software. Next, let's pine for dial-up modems and floppy disks, because who needs progress when you’ve got vintage tech? 🙄📉

I've been good friends with #VisiCalc over the past five years, but I've always turned my nose up at #Lotus123 for some reason. "Thinks he's so special. He's not special. Just a copycat wannabe jerk and..." well, I'll save all that for therapy.

I finally broke down and learned it, and you know what? I didn't hate it. I liked it, even. Maybe I even... loved it?!

🪨 Lotus 1-2-3 on the PC w/DOS 🛠️

Did you know that #Lotus123 is still referenced in Microsoft #Excel documentation to this day, but not #visicalc I finally spent some time getting to know VisiCalc's literal killer. When I struggled to get a chart made, I turned to the only one who could help me: an AI. From 1986!

Lotus 1-2-3 Installation

Lotus 1-2-3 was a groundbreaking spreadsheet software program released in 1983 by Lotus Development Corporation. It combined three key features—spreadsheet, database, and graphics—which revolutionized business computing during the 1980s. Dominating the market in the 1980s and early 1990s, it set the standard for productivity software until Microsoft Excel overtook it in popularity.

Made a career of crunching data and loading spreadsheets. Pivot Tables were a godsend.

#EasyCalc
#SuperCalc
#Lotus123
#QuattroPro
#Excel

Even used a text based one on a MVS mainframe, but I forget the name of the program!
