(Since I grew up on the 28S, I prefer RPL over RPN programming)

As the author of DB48X, I was curious too, so I asked SwissMicros, and they told me that anything that runs on a DM32 should run on the DM42n. So that would be DB50X (DB48X is the exact same software at the moment, but built for the DM42).

Please report your findings.

Doesn't DB50X require the DM32 keyboard with two shift keys, yellow and blue? The 42n still has the 42 keyboard with only the yellow shift key. To run DB50X on the 42n would require key stickers and a new bezel (or a memory much better than mine!)
