Time calculators
Anyone have a link to a windows calculator that has the ability to input processor clock speed, clock cycles used, and output the number of mS, uS or nS
example: 20MHZ clock divided by 20,000 cycles = 1mS instead or 1,000 because I have a hard time thinking about small numbers.
When I want to know how long a pause routine will take if it takes 756 cycles at 20mhz
I take 20,000,000 divide by 756 = 26,455.026455......
I wold rather see xx uS

I have a RPN calculator on my Palm Zire and it has three outputs: Traditonal Floating Point, Engineering, and Scientific.
Engineering Output keeps everything to 10x3, 10x6 or 10x-3, 10x-6 and so on. I suspect that is the best you can do.
Look for a 'shareware' calculator that you can test.It also does HH.MM.SS calculators and much more.
Try www.nthlab.com if you have a Palm or other PDA.
The Chinese drive me nuts as everything is in 4s. 10,0000 equals one hundred thousand. One million is 10,0000,0000.
Recently there was a huge stock market disaster as an order from the U.S.A was placed and discover to be off by a factor of 10.
The broker tried to buy 10 times more stock than the customer wanted.
