Old school calculator is wrong

No, it's right. The e-calculator is wrong.

the order of operations existed at the previous turn of the century, and should operate correctly on every digital calculator ever made

Yes, they should - welcome to what happens when programmers don't bother checking their Maths is correct when writing a calculator app (hence why I wrote the thread I linked to above).
