-Classic 4-stack RPN, both direct mode and programming, with its sheer simplicity compared to the unecessarily complex RPL;

Personally i prefer the RPL stack behaviour (i find it more intuitive) and don't find RPL language so complex.

Quote:-Powerful equation language à la 17B/27S. The 48 has equations too, but way less flexible. Especially, no L() and G();

The 48 solver can solve also program objects, so the "equation concept" is somewhat superseded. I have not yet experimented the 17B/27S/Plus42 equation language, but from a quick manual reading it seems to me functionally like the 48 solver used with program instead of equation. I may be wrong

Quote:-Simplicity: only one shift key, all the 42S normal usage is preserved, no clumsy symbolics...
-And, if you want, compacity. You are not forced to use the big screen, you can still keep the 2 original rows and do away with graphics...

Totally agree
