Oh yeah, good point. Does that apply to program steps, or just data/numeric constants?

Real and complex numbers stored in registers or variables use twice what they use on the HP-42S. The same obviously goes for real and complex matrices.

As far as program bytes are concerned, Free42 uses up the same amount of space as the HP-42S with the exception of very slightly different storage of numerical literals in some cases.
