Swiss Micro Firmware Updates at HHC2015??? - Namir - 09-04-2015 01:02 PM
If I bring my HP41CX by Swiss Micro to the HHC2015, will someone be able to help me update the firmware to the latest version (I believe it is V19)???

Hi Namir
I just updated my SwissMicros DM-41 to FW-version 19. It's done in a jiffy and very easy. I'm no computer man myself either, but I thought I give it a try. It takes 10 min, max!
So yes, I could help you with it.
There is a catch to that though, I don't know what you are talking about when it comes to HHC2015. I take it it's some sort of meeting? Let me know what the HHC2015 is and where it's taking place.
Looking forward to hearing from you
best regards
Stephan

I also updated, but I can't tell a difference. As far as I can tell there are no release notes either.
Hopefully, if there were bugs, they were fixed. Anyway great product - I keep mine with me basically all the time. It reminds me of the description of Harry Seldon's calculator in Foundation, form-factor wise. I imagine he used RPN too.

This looks like RPN to me:
Quote:General Weider smiled bitterly. He pushed the multiplication contact on his computer and let the numbers whirl to a halt. And then he stared and said in a surprised squeak, "Great Galaxy, the fella's right."
By Isaac Asimov. (Not in Foundation, though.)
