Is Moffsoft alive?

I'm looking for a calculator and used The Great Software list as a guide, which told me that Moffsoft Calculator is great. By looking at the screenshot and reading the description, I found that it was the best fit for me. I went to the website and then found out that the software was last updated in 2004. This leads me to assume that development on it has died, and I don't need to tell anybody here what my stance is on "dead" software. It can be as good as it wants, if it is not being actively developed, my interest drops DRASTICALLY. Any comments?

Some weeks ago, mouser posted something about a great calculator. Maybe you could try that one instead ;)
Or, if you're a farr user, try Farr's Calculator :)

While I love FARR, I love it as a launcher. It works extremely well that way, and that's what I use it for exclusively as of now. I have not really considered using it in other ways, though I am sure there are plenty of ways in which FARR can be used other than as a launcher, I like it this way now. I like having the best tool for the job in all categories :). The idea of building additional things into FARR myself goes against that philosophy in that it is absolutely certain that if I try to use FARR as a calculator, I will have FAR from the best tool from the job. Sure, I would have a working calculator that would work just like Google works as a calculator.. but that's far too basic and brings with it none of the benefits of a dedicated calculator app. So, thanks for the suggestion :)

I'm curious to hear about the good free one you mentioned.
