Well, it comes with Libre Office (https://www.libreoffice.org/) which reads and writes Excel files...

I installed it on a 120Gbyte SSD...

It is telling me that the whole thing including all the apps, an office suite Iceweasle (FireFox) browser, etc. take just 4.3Gbyte!  eeek:

Depends how complicated a spreadsheet you need but I find those Open Office read/write Excel programmes don't support what I need.

Unfortunately Libre Office runs Star Basic instead of VBA so any complex excel spreadsheets would need to be converted before they can be used properly.  noooo:
