RetroCalc is the Coolest Calculator App for iPad

RetroCalc just might be the best-looking calculator app ever made for the iPad. This collection of 12 beautifully-redesigned calculators from the "vintage" era of the late 1970’s and early 1980’s will change the way users ’calculate’ on their iPads. By simply swiping a finger across the screen, users can swap between any one of a dozen classic, retro-inspired calculator "skins". Another swipe across the lower-portion of the screen, and users can have their choice of beautiful, HD photographic background textures.

"THE COOLEST CALCULATOR APP FOR THE IPAD":

As Michael Murray at the iPadder blog says, "RetroCalc is the coolest calculator app for the iPad. Period", and adds "When are we going to get an iPhone version" (ed: "Sometime next month, Michael! We’re moving as fast as we can")

RetroCalc’s design team surveyed the early decade of the first handheld calculators and chose 12 of the most iconic designs from that era to re-create in 3D. Each of these designs provided the inspiration for these beautifully rendered, realistic iPad calculators which all live inside a single iPad app: RetroCalc.

GREEN LED BRADFORD VINTAGE CALCULATOR | Atomic Space Junk

This odd 1970′s vintage calculator is from Bradford, possibly a Radio Shack / Lafayette Electronics-type company who imported quality electronics from Japanese companies and re-branded them with their own name. The Bradford 8DPS digital calculator has a bright green display, classic brushed aluminum keypad, 2-tone gray color scheme, and hard shell carrying case. It is in excellent, barely used condition and is complete with instruction book. There are a couple of very faint rubbed spots on the chrome-color frame surrounding the green display, otherwise it is in beautiful cosmetic condition. Keypad and all functions work perfectly. The Bradford measures 5 5/8 inches x 3 inches.

Atomic Space Junk is a collective creation of all things fun, authentic, crazy, cool, memorable, and collectible. "Junk" is not what you think...Long ago, "junk" consisted of random artifacts on a boat or ship...like an old...
