Default PLEASE allow more than 256 columns in Excel!

XL 2007 has 16000+ columns. Due out for general release in early 2007. Beta
download available for a nominal fee.

And may I also point out that you spend zillions of man-hours to add all
sorts of esoteric features like those goofy formatting squares that try to be
so smart to figure out what I really want (and are always WRONG); and any
number of other useless features, but you don't do a simple and really USEFUL
thing like allow more than 256 columns. The 256 limitation is driving me to
look for another spreadsheet.
