8) Office 2007 and Excel 2007 (www.microsoft.com) 🙂
Office 2007 and Excel 2007 now supports up to 1,048,576 rows. If you were going to make the upgrade anyhow, it might save you a few bucks over an expensive statistics package. The statistics plugin for Office 2007 is a lot better than previous versions as well. Runs almost as many analytics as SPSS.
