Windows 7 Calculator
To be honest, updating those small applications like the calculator, notepad or the control panel would not be very high on my priority list for a new Windows operating system. Microsoft apparently thought otherwise and managed to squeeze in some major changes to programs like the Windows Calculator.
The Windows 7 Calculator got a new look and several new functions. Users were able to choose between the normal and scientific calculator in Windows XP for instance and Microsoft decided to add the Programmer and Statistics mode to the calculator. Unit Conversions are another new feature of the updated calculator.
The main interface does not look this different but as you can see in the other pictures there are several new fields and functions available.
The Scientific mode has not changed much.
The screens below show the new programmer mode of the Windows 7 calculator.
And finally the Statistics mode.

I feel that yes, the continued splitting of different versions of Windows will just replicate the entire Vista fiasco.

There was a Windows XP powertoy released called Power Calculator, which is basically that, a graphic calculator.

Power Calculator - With this PowerToy you can graph and evaluate functions as well as perform many different types of conversions.
There’s no reason it shouldn’t be fine on Vista, you can get a free download on that webpage.
Also, in case anyone’s interested there’s also software called Microsoft Math, which has graphing calculator functions among other things:

That would be great, too, especially in an educational environment. Not every student can afford a fancy graphing calculator; granting them access to one that’s easier to use than Excel will be a huge plus at that school and may help promote higher-level mathematics like calculus.

If they are going to add new features, why not add a graphical calculator? This would give the ability to do calculus and advanced math. This might give a challenge to Texas Instruments.
