Hi,

I used to think as you do. However, someone made a suggestion at DevCon that has changed my way of thinking. Here is what they said:

You can make sure they have it on their machine by making it a part of the package when you quote the job. How much does Excel cost? A couple hundred bucks. If it going to make your life easier and fulfill your clients requirements, you can't afford not to include it. Therefore, no more excuses.

Hope this helps,
Jacci
