The 6 is not good number:
666
etc
I am waiting for Prime 7.
The 7 is a good number:
7 dimension in SI
7 days in week
7 notes in a scale
7 colors of the rainbow
7 ancient sages
7 Wonders of the World
etc
What would you have in Prime 7 in first line?
To be able to save worksheets in the 7 preceding file formats:
Prime 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 & Mathcad 15
That 'll make a lot of people happy.
I count my blessings and will not wish for save to Mathcad 11.

This little label error not solved yet. (automatic label instead of function label for min)
I reported that once and actually got a response. It isn't an 'error' per se. It's an actual decision. The logic being that min is both a function and a unit (minutes). Now, I'd think it'd be a simple matter for the program to realize which one it is and change the font accordingly.

While this is just a minor annoyance, the explanation with function vs. unit is not conclusive, not logical for me.
"min" shows up in italics as a variable, not as a function and not as a unit. Whats the logic behind this actual decision? Is it something like "We don't know if its a function or a unit, so lets make a joke and confuse the user and show it as a variable" ?
Furthermore the result is correct, so obviously Prime "knows" that min is meant as function here and correctly acts accordingly. There is no reason for displaying it like a variable. So I still see that quite as a bug, but just as a small, negligible one, as it affects only the presentation/display and not the functionality. Unfortunately, the auto-label feature of Prime has a few grosser inconsistencies to offer and is often wrong enough in a way that seriously compromises functionality. These errors are usually quite hard to find, as a wealth of inquiries here in the forum show.
