Another option is MuPAD.
There is a free version. It does symbolic and numerical calculations math. I've been using it for about 6 months now, and I really like it.
The pro version is nicer, but it does cost somthing. You can download it and use it for a month. It has a great tutorial.
I had thought that my TI-92 and TI-86 handled 64 bits, but when I just tested them it's just that they display negative numbers with that many bits. It looks like they only calculate at 32 bits total. (I did fudge up my own 128-bit 'alu' calculator under DOS. It handles expressions, square root, and the basic operations and the division result provides both quotient and remainder and the multiplication provides 256 bit results. If it's of any interest, I'd be happy to provide it.)

TI-65 goes to 40 bits
Jon, it would be of great interest! I still use DOS every day, so that's not an issue at all. (My favorite programming editor is a DOS version, so I am writing Windows apps using DOS. How's that for strange?)
Thanks for your generous offer.

advance.
For electronics work you can't beat the Casio FX-61F, it is specifically designed for electronics. Every calculator should have a parallel key! Baring that, any general casio will be more than what you need for most general work.
The casio CFX-400 was of course the ducks guts, a complete scientific calculator with base conversion on your wrist! A sad day when the discontinued that one.

Shall I just email the EXE in ZIP form?
Jon
That would be excellent.... many thanks!
