The already infamous 850*77.1 calculation error found in Excel 2007 shows
different behaviour under different OS:

- when running Vista the result is 100000 (instead of the correct 65535) !
- when running XP the result cannot be calculated (Excel displays "the
formula you typed contains an error") !

The question is : when do we get a patch?

I am running XP and the results can be calculated, although they
display the bug.
