"Lots of functionality for any software, esp FREE software"
Version: Calc98 5.3
Pros
I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of functionality in this software. The more you use it, the more depth it has.
Cons
The user interface is a little complex and has a bland design.

"Very functional but on the busy side"
Version: Calc98 5.3
Pros
I like the software and have used several modes. It is very powerful and has MANY options.
Cons
The only negative I have is it is so powerful and has so mnay options the screen is busy and cluttered. I really miss the Palm Calculator on the Treo but this is a far step ahead of the basic calculator in Windows.

"Good product. elimnates the need for a scientific calculator"
Version: Calc98 5.3
Summary
This program is an excellant product overall. I have been using it for several months and have only two complaints so far. It doesn't shutdown well because an internal function ("radians" is inactive and it does not roll information off the stack once the stack is full, you have to clear the stack. Otherwise, it is a very useful and eliminates the need to carry a scientific calculator and a Pocket PC.
