At least 5 times a day for each. I use notepad a lot cuz word 2007 is so slow and crappy. Calc is always opened as I use it all the time.

 

[Fritzo]

I have a sidebar gadget for calculator, and I use stickynotes for a quick notepad. Don't have to open anything

Vista is growing on me.

 

[Baked]

My keyboard has the calc button. Win!

 

[TridenT]

I use neither that often really... :-|

I do open mspaint more often.

 

[speg]

I do quick calculations in spotlight a half dozen times per day, but have given up writing notes on my dashboard.

 

[Anubis]

close to never

 

[IronWing]

Notepad => tntc

Calc.exe => never. I use an HP32S II or Excel.

Win+R is my friend. I just checked and cmd was the last thing I used it for. Calc was right before that. My Microsoft keyboard at home has a calc button

I never knew that shortcut, awesome! I use notepad ALL day at work rather than writing down crap on sheets or scraps of paper like others around me do. I usually break out the calc every couple of days when needing to figure something quickly.

there are so many Win+x shortcuts i use all the time.
notepad I use daily, calc every now and then

Notepad I don't use too often, but calc I use all the time. My keyboard even has a "special calculator key" built into it...

 

[DnetMHZ]

several times a day each.

 

[effowe]

I use Smultron and Calculator.app

 

[xcript]

It's kedit & kcalc for me.

I'm going to guess ~10x for kedit, ~2 for kcalc.

 

[edro]

5-10 times a day for each.

 

[AMDZen]

People use notebad? Are they unfamiliar with Apps like notepad++

 

[eakers]

i agree with the good txt editor. notepad++ is what i've been using for a while.

Several times a day. Calc.exe gets used more frequently.

i leave notepadd++ open all the time at work. calc gets used multiple times a day as well.

I have almost everything set to open in Notepad by default. It is great to have something load instantly and give me just the bare minimum. For example, notepad never saves formatting crap.

I've only used the calculator once in the last 5 years or so. I use Excel or Mathcad for math.

 

[bobsmith1492]

Calculator! Dozens, maybe a hundred times a day. Cntl+Alt+C = Calculator!

 

[Leafy]

Calc: 2-3 times a day
Notepad+: Always open

 

[rh71]

I have a notes.txt tucked away that I use the quicklaunch to shortcut run... works great for me.

'calc' I use at the run command all the time...

 

[BurnItDwn]

notepad once per day at work. (i bring a laptop, so I shut it down at the end of the day and stick it in the bag) ... then, when I boot up and log into the PC, I have notepad autostart ...

calc I don't use all that often, simple calculations I'll do in my head ... more complicated I have gotten lazy and just entered the equation right into google ...
