Love the sparklines. I'll take the extra rows as well but they have to
make it easier on the COM interface to deal with programmatically.
Fortunately, C# 4.0 helps out in that area if I could only use it at
my current client. COM interop has a major speed issue.

Next machine will be 64-bit with SSDs to test out this cool stuff.

The comments were really useless, IMO.
