Customer Reviews
Great calculator, must have for RPN fans
I have been using PCalc on my iPhone for quite awhile, and this app brings the same great calculator to the desktop. I love the ability to see multiple lines of the stack, and there are plenty of features to customize. The built in conversion ability is also very handy. If you're a new RPN user or a long time veteran, you will not be disappointed.
Used this almost 20 years ago
Used to use this for System 7 I believe, still a great product.
I've seen them all...
I've lost count of the dozens of calculators I've tried and discarded over the years for my Mac (and iPhone). This one does almost everything, and is the most flexible. As a fussy designer, I love the look and customizability. The only thing that I'd like to see is foot-inch calculations. Then it would be off the charts. Great software.
