Future Option traders will still need a crystal ball for futures forecasts, but they'll need not invest in pocket calculators--hey ho no more--Google Adds Calculator FunctionResearchBuzz News -- August 7 - August 13, 2003
"That wacky Google. Now they're rolling out the calculators. As you can see from the explanation at http://www.google.com/help/features.html#calculator , you can turn an incredibly powerful search engine into a four-function calculator! Whoopee!"

Researchbuzz News tells us that that Google's calculator function even has a conversion utility which will convert into troy ounces (do any cocoa or gold trading?)--have to agree with Research Buzz News, this new capability is "neato." When will Google become a take-out Chef? That would be even *more* neato.
