Just compare how Apple Numbers opens a .CSV file and how Ms Excel requires you to make a couple of decisions to open the same file. Amazing...

I like Numbers far better than Excel. Everything is easier to do. And it looks better.

The Windows version of Excel opens the downloaded .CSV with banking data with the same ease as Numbers. So, obviously, Excel for Mac isn't as smart as the Windows version.
