I didn\'t bother to download.  I sort of wonder what the point is.  I can just run the original Pac Man roms using MAME if I wanted to play Pac Man.  However, I don\'t want to play it, so....

Let me know when he does an Excel version of Robotron: 2084.   :)

Have no reason to get pacman on Excel. Kind of cool though that you can play pacman on excel.

No shit sherlocks..  Everyone can get pacman..  Blah blah blah. Look at me..  I\'m cool....


THe point is that they did it in Excel.  That\'s pretty cool.  In a real nerdy way.

That\'s pretty damn amazing.  If they know excel that well, I wonder if they could make it do other things.....  I always wonder how truly secure such programs are... if someone could write one in such a way that it would download/compile a virus or just do something crazy to your computer.
