I'm amazed that nobody has a shortcut or a quicklaunch to a calculator of any kind. Maybe it's just me but at least daily I do a calculation of some kind or another for some reason, frequently during SEIV games too. Normally not worth busting out the old HP, it but sure beats start/programs/accessories/calculator every time...

I do. It's in my taskbar, right next to the launch button for Battle for Westnoth.

Me too. And I renamed it `Calculator. So when I need to calculate, it's press [Ctrl]+[Esc], then [`] just below it, and calculator pops up.

I keep one on mine, just haven't tried to post my screen. I use it alot in SE IV. So much that I keep a second calculator next to my computer In case I need to do several things at once. Supper useful when dealing with QNP mods to squeeze that last movement point from colony ships without running out of supplies.

My keyboard has a calculator shortcut button right on it. I use that all the time. Before that, I use to have a shortcut on my desktop.

Mine's the same.

Whew! I thought I might be the only calculator geek on this forum. That's a relief.

I have one of the programmable keys on my keyboard set to a calculator, so there is never any need to go to the desktop to open it.
