Pure User RPL I guess.
I gave up on this, having 50% Sys RPL code in my main surveying program, but also because I hated the new hardware.

I guess it depends on your professional needs. In my line of work, the 50g added some very useful capabilities such as a matrix eigenvalue/vector solver and a FFT (fast fourier transform). I could connect the 50g to a computer data acquisition system and do some quick signal analysis to tweak a design in the shop. It is also much faster than the 48SX, which is important when doing on the fly analyses, and the display is far more legible. For sure the keys on the 48 are much nicer and the layout is better, but I've had no reliability problems with my 50g.
