Multiple cell ranges can not be manipulated at once, making Gnumeric unusable for transshipment problems and goal programming. Cell ranges can only be compared to ranges of equal length and width in constraints. Nonlinear programming is not yet possible.

PSpice Proprietary Silver Yes No Qucs You can probably replace the Tront PSpice book with the Qucs workbook.
Zeitnitz Soundcard Oscilloscope ? Gold ? No xoscope
