As the owner of a DM42 and DM15 I'm asking myself the same. For programming the 42 is far superior, for simpler tasks the 15 suffices.

I'm a "calcoholic".
My signature reflects my calcs (except some 15 non-rpn/l calcs, that's not much used)
Recently obtained a WP43 from the Pilot Run, which looks very promising.
I do, however, have a "need", or at least a purpose, for a SM32. It'll be my daily driver at sea. (I'm a ships engineer, and I prefer calcs over excel when projecting (future) fuel consumption, run hrs oil change prediction and such stuff).
Regarding price; I think it is fairly reasonable. In 1992 (when I had my last year at engineering school) the HP48 was "the new hot" and was advertised at around US$400,- in Norway. Wich, in today's money is a tad over US$700,- (No, I never bought one. I bought second hand, and still have, my trusty old HP-28S).
