[ale] MS Office new version

[Jim Kinney]

Ah. I have OOo 2.3 and I can insert the fit curve and obtain the equation
from the status bar. As the gereation of the "pretty print" equation line is
pretty easy, I just use that equation edit -> paste  and call it done. Given
the need exceeds NeoOffice, a speed hit on OOo on the Mac may be justified.
I have Neo (ancient version) and OOo on my (ancient version) mac and OOo is
speedy enough that I don't loose interest.

Mac users are _so_ eye candy dependent ;-}
