Nah, I rarely need to do calculations, and if I do I'll use cmd+space on Mac, Spotlight can do simple calculations, or Google.

For longer calculations I used to use Soulver, but I haven't needed to do that in a while. I recall last time I used it, it was for something in eve online. It's a bit more suitable for that kind of calculation because you can write down your thinking and name variables while doing stuff.

That said, I remember once upon a time we had an old desktop calculator, plugged in, chunky buttons, illuminated display (blue segment display), that thing was pretty cool, if I had the desk space I wouldn't mind a somewhat oversized calculator like that.
