What version are you using, because I definitely can't reproduce that. If I delete any of the cells, the answer is correct.

here is a good example... I found if I delete cells that functions are
performed on (cell1+cell2=cell3) the total isn't recalculated (cell3
isn't right).

I'm not really much of an office suite user, but my experience and
the feedback I've heard has always been yes it is bad compared to MS
Office. I think Libre/Open office covers 90% of use cases and is
more than capable of handling what most users need, however it's
interface isn't nearly as good, it lacks the vbscript macros the
rest of the world uses, it's charting/graphs don't look as nice and
formatting comes out mangled when excel users open it (or when you
open an xlsx). Microsoft has invested a lot of time, money and
energy into getting Excel just right and it really is a great (if
not their best) product. The heavy excel users I know that don't
run Windows keep a Win7 VM around for Office/Excel use.
As a side note I think one thing that the Linux/FLOSS community is
very bad at is learning from what others get right. You might not
like Microsoft but to claim their popularity was in no way due to
making some good products is disingenuous at best. If people
genuinely care about increasing Linux desktop usage (which is not of
any particular interest to me personally) the right questions to ask
are about what MS and Apple get right rather than what they get wrong.

So I talked my brother into ditching Micro$haft and moving to Linux.
Baaaad idea...
The man uses Excel *HEAVILY*, and LibreOffice just could not
keep up.
But it was not lack of features or limitations, it was *STUPID*
(but dangerous) things like cells not showing the real value
and/or recalculating wrong.
I didn't take his word for it, he showed me the (unbelievable)
problems (I could not believe what I was seeing).
The guy is back to Excel...
What am I missing?
