- Dylan16807 8y agoI really don't think an easter egg like this is enough for "false description of the product". Is Excel 97 not a spreadsheet program?
- Wowfunhappy 8y agoWas Excel 97 submitted to a separate authority for testing and validation prior to release? It was, don't you think the authority should have been informed of any hidden functionality or easter eggs?
- AnaniasAnanas 8y ago> don't you think the authority should have been informed of any hidden functionality or easter eggs? The users? Sure. An authority? No, not really.
- Dylan16807 8y agoIt was submitted to a lot of stores with harsh requirements for shelf space, acting partly on testing and partly on trust. I'd say the authority there is comparable, and no they didn't need to be informed as long as the program admirably performed its job with no malicious code.
