Best spreadsheet
Plasma Man:
SoftMaker is very good and solidly designed. They now have a USB version as well.
Another strong candidate for top spreadsheet is Quantrix:

Take the tour - if you find it gets a bit tedious after a few mins you can hop through the modules and see how it works.

This is one of most interesting office apps I've seen for quite some time. Very refreshing to use after Excel.
cmpm:
This one is free, though it's slow to load at first.
Java based.
I'm not a spreadsheet user, but I do use other parts of it.

Wow, Quantix looks fantastic. It's pretty revolutionary; I wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft bought them and incorporated bits of their stuff into Excel.
One of the few times I've watched an online demo and wished I has a use for what I was watching. Very nice!
Darwin:
Quantrix looks NICE. Unfortunately, it's a Pro tool with a price to match (in either the Standard or Pro flavour). I can't help thinking that it looks perfect for my PhD, though... and they do offer academic pricing... Right, nothing for it but to download a demo :o
urlwolf:
I think excel 2007 has named cells, and pivot tables can do much of what the demo advertises as Quantrix-only.
Still, I'm salivating too...
