Calculator is one of the programs that Microsoft has 'upgraded' to a much nicer interface (than what is available now) in Windows 7. The new Windows 7 Calculator now has 4 different modes :- Standard Mode
- Statistics Mode
- Programmer Mode
- Scientific Mode
This default calculator goes above and beyond the brick on your desk by including unit conversions, date calculations, and a neat new set of "templates" that let you do things like figure out gas mileage, hourly wages, mortgage payments, leases, and more. Check out some of the calculator goodness in the Windows 7 Preview here
















give it a go...
my 32bit Win7 exe didn't work in my 64bit WinVista.
200 * 10% = 4000
In the scientific mode, the percent sign isn't even available, and typing it in via the keyboard doesn't register.

What did you expect? It's a Beta.
i dont think you understand. beta is development code, i.e. it might not be finished. If they waited until everything was finished tested and working, you'd have no beta!
" 200 * 10% " and the screen will show 20.
Press " = " and the result will be 4,000
Sounds like the new one is the same - the correct answer...
Why would you use the % sign in Scientific mode (which also isn't there in the current version)?
Id buy that for a dollar!
How the hell come that Windows SEVEN won't even get something in a free Windows XP PowerToy!?
How?
