I narrowly "missed" visicalc, as by the time I had a IBM compatible PC the "real thing" was already Lotus 1-2-3. But some years later, in win 3.x times, I had to use it as there were some valuable spreadsheet that needed to be "translated" to Excel, those were fun times, the actual executable being so small and still capable of doing "amazing" things. BTW, and as a side note, in Windows times and before Excel 95 came out (probably also after it was released), the "best" spreadsheet around was (IMHO) the very little known Borland Quattro: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quattro_Pro https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quattro_Pro that - besides the name - was the more natural successor to Lotus 1-2-3.
