Part of the Microsoft Office Suite, Excel is a spreadsheet program that basically resembles a paper ledger sheet, or a giant table. Unlike paper, Excel makes your job easier by removing the need for erasers or calculators! It definitely makes number manipulation almost painless.

A joke used on Alabama, during "Weekend Update with Colin Quinn", a segment on Saturday Night Live on 11/13/99.
"The report also noted that, in terms of Y2K readiness, Alabama is the nation's least prepared state. Alabama authorities, however, insist that they'll get to the Y2K problem as soon as they address the state's long-standing Y1K difficulties."

The Japanese name of the Nintendo Entertainment system (NES). It might also be known as the "Nintendo Family Computer". It's an 8-bit console that played cartridge-style games. You can easily tell the difference from the US and JP version by its cosmetics; US had gray/black, JP had red/white/gold.

The proper given name for the redesigned PlayStation 2. This new model is much smaller than the PS2, and even has a network adapter built in (saving you $40 at retail). It uses a flip-top lid instead of the old one, which is a tray that slides out.
To help reduce size of the new PStwo, it will not support the HDD, but it's still pretty damn small. But you like going to PS2 lan parties, you'd want this.
