John Mauro Software is proud to announce the release of PowerCalc 4.0, one
of the most powerful and intuitive scientific calculators for Mac OS. It is
available for download from the John Mauro Software web site at:
http://cs.alfred.edu/~maurojc/software
Two new function palettes have been added to PowerCalc 4.0. The first
allows conversions among dozens of units for length, area, volume, time,
temperature, mass, force, pressure, energy, power, and speed. The second
new function palette lists over twenty constants commonly used for
scientific and engineering computations. Just select a constant from the
convenient popup menu and click "Input Constant" to input its value into
the calculator. Other functions palettes contain buttons for trigonometry,
probability, exponential, integer, bitwise, relational, and logical
operations.
Previous versions of PowerCalc could store four numbers in memory. Now with
version 4.0, up to 1000 values may be stored. Each value is easily
accessible through a popup menu. The values are stored in a preference file
even after you have quit, so each time you launch PowerCalc your stored
values will be instantly available for recall.
PowerCalc is also completely customizable. Everything from the window
colors to the welcome message may be customized. PowerCalc 4.0 is 100%
compatible with Apple's new version of the Appearance control panel.
As always, PowerCalc supports full balloon help. If you ever have any
question about what a particular button does, just turn on balloon help and
point to it. A balloon will pop up explaining how to use the feature.
Another exciting feature in PowerCalc 4.0 is full support for the new G4
chip's Velocity Engine, making computations especially fast on Apple's new
G4 towers. Of course, all PowerPC and 68K Macintosh models are also
supported.
PowerCalc is the perfect program for anyone interested in a powerful,
easy-to-use shareware calculator for Mac OS. You can download PowerCalc
from the John Mauro Software web site at:

Also available from John Mauro Software are Cyberopoly, Digital Wipeout,
Trilite, and PowerCalc Lite. With Cyberopoly, you can play as Bill Gates or
Steve Jobs and try to take over the computer industry. Digital Wipeout is
an educational math game that's fun for people of any age. Trilite is a
simple game similar to tic-tac-toe, but much more fun and challenging.
Finally, PowerCalc Lite is a simplified version of PowerCalc.
Please feel free to distribute unregistered versions of my programs to any
interested users. If you have any questions concerning PowerCalc or John
Mauro Software, please write to maurojc@kagi.com.
