Hi, I'm Chris and I'm a Black Belt (sounds like the opening line at a BB Anonymous meeting?!) at GE in Leicester, UK.
I no longer have a shortcut to MiniTab on my desktop, because excel is so much more flexible! Since subscribing to PHD, I've learnt enough to reproduce most of the core statistical functionality and I'm now obsessed with visualisation!
That said, I've only really been using Excel in anger for about 3 years - so much to learn!
I do a lot of work on internal metrics and analysis around quote conversion ratios - my audience typically just wants to see a 'picture' and this is where PHD has proved priceless!
Thank you Chandoo, and all the other contributors for your wisdom - I look forward to making good use of this forum - maybe even help a little?!
