Does anyone have any others to suggest, or a clear favourite?

For me, I need something either online or spreadsheet-based, or an application that runs on a mac.

Obviously reasonable accuracy is important, but so is user-friendliness, and the ability to save calculations would be handy. I'd be willing to pay for something (not loads) that was better than any of the free options.

Something that will give you a useful dew-point calculation is also good.

A company I used was using the (free??) trial version.

It looks like they do. £250ish. Unfortunately no good to me (on Mac) as Windows only.
