Hi Arthur, I'm in full agreement with you about Keysoft. I received my Keynote XL in 1988 and found it easy to learn. The menu system is more user friendly in my opinion, not to mention the context-sensitive help available at all times. I never owned any other Keynote products, even though I briefly used a couple of them, but I still found all the concepts the same when I purchased my classic VN. This made my learning curve easier than expected. I think statistical functions would be nice for Keyplus. Students are often asked to find the standard deviation in exams, and quite often I had to leave these questions blank because Keyplus was unable to do this. In my HSC 13 years ago, I had to get somebody to do this for me after I had told them which numbers to enter into their calculator. I do think it's great that Keyplus will be able to handle fractions in Keysoft 7, but statistical functions would be great as well. Even though I do not use the calculator much these days, these functions would come in handy for those who do, particularly high school students. Just my thoughts. David
