 • Our Selections
EqFit
EqFit 4.0 has a regression workbench to fit equations to your data. View the results using graphic plots and any of five statistical output reports. Graph residuals, 
calculated y values, probability, and more. You can print or save results to a file and use ASCII files to input data. Regression benchmarks are included to satisfy quality concerns. Also included are descriptive statistics to analyze a column of data.
BrainStormer
BrainStormer is software designed to help you generate lots of ideas and then determine which of them is most suitable. BrainStormer is ideal for solving problems creatively, devising new product ideas, creating new corporate strategies, establishing personal or corporate goals, and more.
Brainstorm
BrainStorm allows you to first assemble all your information in any random order and then easily rearrange it into a logical structure. The final result is a highly organized hierarchy with multiple levels, all automatically cross-linked to related items.
Engineering Power Tools
An extensive suite, Engineering Power Tools is a library of engineering programs that can be used to quickly solve a wide range of commonly encountered engineering problems.

MathGV
Extremely useful mathematical function graphing software.  Tyoe in any 2D or 3D function(s) and get a plot in bitmap form.  Get this one while its still free!
Mechanical Toolbox (mtbunpk.zip)
Includes calculation modules for piping, flanges, material data, hardness data, wire gage data, wall thickness, units conversion, stress factors, and pressure drop. Read the Help file that comes with the program for a better picture.
OmniCon
This unit-conversion utility allows you to perform conversions between the imperial and metric systems easily and quickly. Some of the features of OmniCon 98 include conversions in 43 physical quantities (such as velocity, angle, dynamic viscosity, 
and length); accurate conversions (from the latest Government of Canada conversion tables) so that you can have confidence in 
your results; the ability to add user-defined units (i.e., one "widget" equals one meter) so that OmniCon 98 is completely configurable; and the ability to save and print sets of conversions for later use. This version includes a fix to notify users about a potential incompatibility when using a comma as their decimal symbol instead of a period.
Vinny Graphics
A graphing utility that includes regression analysis. Read the help file that comes with the program for a better picture.
iCrank Desktop Wallpaper
For the iCrank green "engineering pad" windows desktop: 
Download the file back60.bmp, place it in your windows directory and select it as your wallpaper (tiled).  For the best effect, go to control panel/display settings appearance tab.  In this tab, select the item: desktop and click the color setting.  Click "other" to set the color to the RGB value of R:231, G:247, B:214.  This will give the desktop icons the same background color as the desktop.
