Q: What is so special about Virtual Calc?
A: It supports infinite digits.  

Q: How many digits is infinite?
A: 2147483645 digits.
   To give you an example of how BIG 10^2147483647 is...
   Number of books in Library of Congress: 10^8
   Number of people in the world: 10^9
   Number of particles (smaller than atoms) in universe: 10^79 
   
Q: Is that all that is special about Virtual Calc?
A: NO!, it also supports unconstrained bases.  YES! UNCONSTRAINED.
   That means you are no longer limited by the common bases
   (binary,octal,decimal,and hexadecimal).  Virtual Calc supports
   ANY!!! base from 2 on up.  Try base 3, 4, 5, 20, 30, 40, 
   50, or ANY base you desire!  No limits!!

Q: Is that all that is special about Virtual Calc?
A: NO!, it also supports "decimal" point, "binary" 
   point, "hexadecimal" point, "octal" point, and
   ANY!! floating point from base 2 and up.  Did you 
   know that all the calculators in the world support 
   ONLY the decimal point?  Virtual Calc FREES you from 
   this constraint!  Calculate floating point numbers 
   in ANY base you choose!  2, 3, 4, 64, etc. NO constraints!

Q: Is that all that is special about Virtual Calc?
A: NO!, it also supports infix expressions.  Do you hate it when
   you are calculating a lot of numbers, and have to start
   over if you make a mistake?  With Virtual Calc, you can
   type the whole expression (77.632+(55/0.41)*333-2222.3+888
   -12345.67*(987+345)) BEFORE you calculate.  You can then go
   back and modify a few numbers, punch calculate to see the
   results instantly!  No retyping!

Q: Is that all that is special about Virtual Calc?
A: NO!, it also supports customizable symbols for ALL
   digits of ANY base, and ALL arithmitic operators!!
   Example, you can customize digits 0-9 to a-j, and +-*/
   to !@#$, or ANY symbols you desire.  Afterwards, if you
   input abc!def, Virtual Calc will output dfh.  
   (123+456=579)  Virtual Calc frees you from symbolic
   constraints!  

Q: Is that all that is special about Virtual Calc?
A: NO!, Virtual Calc is FAST!  So fast, it will shock
   you.  Try Adding, Subtracting, Multiplying, Dividing
   100000+ digit numbers.  No kidding.  And it will get faster.
   Virtual Calc 98 is NOT optimized.  Future registered
   versions will get even faster (We are talking many
   times faster, not a few percents).

Q: Is that all that is special about Virtual Calc?
A: NO!, Virtual Calc is a GUI calculator!  It runs on
   Windows 95.  Fully 32-bit.  This is a Win95 calc.exe
   replacement.  Upgrade from the limited calculator in Win95!

Q: Is that all that is special about Virtual Calc?
A: NO!, it also supports file loading and saving, clipboard
   copying, and memory storages.  That means you can edit the
   numbers from any editor, and Virtual Calc can import it from
   the clipboard or file, or store it locally in memory.  It
   can also export it to your favorite editor by saving to a
   file or copying to the clipboard.  This is useful because
   Virtual Calc can handle HUGE numbers!!

Q: I'm excited!  I want to download it!!!
A: HERE IS THE HOME WEBSITE:  http://www.edepot.com/phl.html
   The latest version can be downloaded from there.
   Do it now!!

Q: Why is this calculator so great?
A: The calculator uses state of the art algorithms
   created from scratch.  (It had to be, no other calculator
   supports unconstrained bases and floating point, and ALSO
   supports infix expressions and infinite digits!)
