I can say that yesterday Google and Calculator disagreed on how much  
money $100 was worth.  Google was a go €0.30 higher than calculator.

I stopped using calculator for currency conversions yonks ago though.   
I use launchbar to access google's converter:

goo space 100 usd in euro return

100 U.S. dollars = 69.213732 Euros

calculator: 69.0869987

only about €0.13 today.

xe.com says: 100.00 USD = 69.1173 EUR
