Desktop calculators have been around for years despite the fact that computers were designed so long ago for processing numbers and large data banks of alphanumerical information. Even with the awesome technology advances since those early days, a lot of people who use personal computers still need another machine on the desk for adding up numbers or for completing basic arithmetic calculations.

“ttl’s Tape and Tax Calculator” overcomes the necessity for two machines on your desk by effectively combining 7 calculators, each with its own tape, in to one and then placing that combination in to software for use on a modern computer which uses a resolution of 1024 by 768 pixel.

There are obvious advantages to the solution that “ttl’s Tape and Tax Calculator” provides. These include -

A user need only become familiar with one type of keyboard.

A display that assists the visual appreciation of a calculation by showing all the resulting figures from a tax calculation.

A display that allows individual figures that are a result of a tax calculation to be copied and then pasted in to another application.

A tape that may be given a descriptive or alphanumeric title.

Plus the advantages stemming from the features described earlier on this page.
