Default Excel's 20th birthday?

Hi All,

It was more than 20 years ago that I first saw a beta copy of Excel at
a Portland Mac Users Group meeting. It was impressive. It fit on
one floppy disk and ran with 128K of RAM. Adding RAM and running it
from a RAM disk made it blazing fast.

What was the official first shipping date?

Best Regards,
Walt
