Your new PC should eat it up no problems, but beware, Vista and 2007 is very
different to XP and 2003.

As I said, yes they CAN run it. There may be a few little things that work
differently/are broken in 2007, but these should be few and far between.
When I said that Vista and 2007 are very different to XP and 2003, I was
referring to the user experience, it looks differently, thing are in
different places, and so on.

Current performance of Excel 2007 under WinXP 2GB Ram 1.8Ghz cpu
vs Excel 2003 under Vista 2GB ram 1.8 Ghz cpu

In both cases I had the file on my desktop and no other programs were running

Open the file by dble click

Excel 07 22 sec
Excel 03 11 sec including click on warning to enable macros

Change the value of a single cell to 566
Worksheet FID IRS
Cell G12

Excel 03 <1 sec
Excel 07 Gave up after two minutes.
Attempted to close Excell which caused crash of program


Bottom line Excell 2007 appears not to be out of Beta.
I will uninstall and go back to Office 2003
