I have been looking for something like this for a while, I find software calculators to be woefully inadequate for anything beyond the most basic math. Will definitely check this out!
I usually don’t like to link to competing projects, but this seems to be only for Linux so I think I can link a similar one (as far as I can understand from the screenshots) for OS X and iOS: http://acqualia.com/soulver/
looks interesting, I wonder if it can be ported to Windows, where I have to spend my working life :-(.
For something even more sophisticated and Mathcad-like take a look at SMath Studio: http://en.smath.info/, unfortunately only free as in beer.
Neat. I'm a regular Sage user, and this seems to be an interesting tool for when I don't require the full power of that tool and just need to make some quick calculations.
Apropos nothing: I'd really like an alternative to Sage for light linear algebra work. In particular, I'm not in love with the way Sage interacts with Python.

Also wanted more algebraic like wolfram alpha capability though.

It should be noted that this kind of thing has been available in Mathematica, ipython etc. for literally decades.
Not that the tool is not great, it is.

Other than that, looks like you'll need bzr to pull/clone.
