Default Rand function

Hello,

quite some time ago, I read some comments in this group about Excel's
RAND() function, saying that it was "awful". Is this true, and if so,
why?

Because of speed?
Or because it's not "really random"?

I'm not a mathematician, please use easy language on me :-)

Thanks,

Al
