Benchmark test e^x^3

[Beginner]

Interesting. But this should not be the case, if the HP Prime is able to deal with numbers up to E499 in the Home environment.

The new hardware of the Second Generation of the HP Prime is revolutionary, but the software does not seem to use all these wonderful resources. Will there be an update in the not so distant future that makes use of this wonderful hardware?

SwissMicros edited the DM 42 (an "update" oft the hp 42s) which is able to handle this stuff (but it is slower than the HP Prime):

>>The DM42 runs Free42, which uses the Intel Decimal Floating-Point Math Library; it uses IEEE 754-2008 quadruple precision decimal floating-point, which consumes 16 bytes per number, and gives 34 decimal digits of precision, with exponents ranging from -6143 to +6144.<<

I wonder if I should buy one or wait for improvements of the Second Generation of the HP Prime?
