Default Weird Multiplication!

I've just entered into Excel:

=77.1*850

and the answer I get is 100,000, when I clearly shoudl be getting 65,535.


Are you trolling, or did you really miss all the discussions of this
bug a couple of months ago? It was widely publicized, and there's
already a fix on the MS site.
