    Mathcad works with units with an engineer's point of view, mathematica works with an academic/theoretical point of view for mathematicians.

    Very easy syntax to tap on, thus making it very convenient to do engineering calculation with units,function,plot and substitution. In a word, almost a perfect alternative for Calcpad.
