Latest Coronavirus - Yikes

I was actually thinking about getting an Apple computer today. I'm due for a hardware upgrade.

If Excel, Word, Powerpoint and Adobe will run on there, that's about all I would need.
I made the change a couple of years ago myself, at least for personal use. When MS went from Win8 to Win10 it was supposed to be no charge, but never installed correctly for me. It was even a forced update and started a timer after my putting it off for many weeks.Even paid my company IT guy to try and install and ended up having to buy Win 10 so had several hundred dollars invested, when should if been free. Final straw.

You will never look back, Adobe is fine and there are even built in convertors for Word and such.Just looked it up and MS has an OIS Excel

It would be a big jump for me, since my business depends on being able to use a core set of fairly sophisticated Excel spreadsheets (if I do say so myself) with numerous Visual Basic "macros" (what we used to call computer programs/subroutines). But I may give it a shot since I am ready for a round of upgrades.

Sounds sophisticated to me and really over my head as I am such a novice with Excel. Do certain cells have a program result, mire than some mathematical formula?

Not to derail the thread, but if you've ever done any computer programming you might have used Fortran, Basic, COBOL etc. as programming platform/language. Visual Basic is very similar to the old Basic language in syntax and let's you operate on values from cells of a spreadsheet as input data and post results back into pages/cells of the spreadsheet. Mostly these "macros" are activated from "buttons" that can be placed in cells of the spreadsheet. I have one file that does my accounting. Customer Database, Product Database, Quotes and Quote Database, Orders, Pricing, and prints Invoices and Packing Lists... all in the same file and with printing from these various sheets into PDF format which can then be emailed to customers. Several other sheets that do modeling & simulations on catalyst/vessel designs etc. mainly for gas or liquid purification.
