Windows 7 Calculator, more than meets the eye
The Windows 7 Calculator looks meek and unassuming when first opened. But it has some super abilities hidden behind its Clark Kent surface.
A quick trip to the View menu shows that can be changed into a scientific, programming, or statistical calculator. “Okay.” You say. “That is not so exciting.”
But it does more. It also converts units. Need to convert temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius or vice versa? How about feet to meters or liters to gallons (UK or US)? This calculator has you covered. There are lots of other preprogrammed conversion units.
But wait it does more. It also has some built-in worksheets that you might want to use. Need a mortgage calculation? It can calculate the highest purchase price you can afford, the down payment required, the monthly payment or the mortgage term in years. There is a worksheet for vehicle leases, and another calculator for fuel efficiency in either mpg (US) or L/100 km (everywhere else).
Oh yeah, there’s still more. It does date conversions too!
It does not slice or dice, and I did not see a 50 year guarantee. Maybe in Windows 8?
