Microsoft Mathematics 4 review – A free must-have Math application for Windows to do Calculus, Statistics, Trigonometry, Linear Algebra and more !

October 10, 2008 By Remo Knops 6 Comments

Over the past 1.5 years I've been using a HP Compaq NC6320, but recently I switched to a Lenovo X60 tablet as my primary notebook. I will provide some arguments for my choice and interesting facts about the device. After 1,5 years the HP/Compaq NC6320 is technically still a very robust and rock solid device. Windows Vista Ultimate ran on it without any problems. With a 1,83 GHz Core 2 Duo processor and 4GB of RAM it is still a very good device to use. Also one of the reasons I choose the … [Read more...]
