"To try it for yourself, open up Excel 2007 and multiply 850 by 77.1. If you're unfamiliar with performing calculations in Excel, you'd enter the following into a cell: =850*77.1 Once you do that, you'll discover the answer according to Excel 2007 is 100,000. But now get out a calculator or a piece of paper and pencil and do the same calculation and you'll find that the answer is really 65,535."
