Let this not be about slaughtering Swiss-Micros. But I can only second the tendency of this post.
The good thing about Swiss-Micros: The DM 42 was my first RPN machine. DM 10 L, 11 L, 15 L and 41 L followed. The 10 L is dying of screen death right now. The 41 L is almost unusable because of the Voyager case. Meanwhile, the prices at Swiss Micros are such that I don't want to follow. A positive thing about Swiss Micros is that it made me aware of Hewlett-Packard's classic calculators. I won't buy anything from Swiss Micros anymore. Above all, what? In the meantime, they seem to feed mainly on handicraft projects.

So it came as it had to come, I now own some of the originals, starting with the HP 45, then HP 28 S, via HP 32 s and Hp 42 s to hp 48 SX, 48 Gm 48 G+, 49, up to two 50g (which I still got for about USD). Three Prime also belong to the herd. One 15 C CE I ordered, and one 12 C Platinum is also still there. And my conclusion is: No matter what gymnastics Swiss Micros will still do, the keyboards remain miles behind the originals. And unfortunately I have to say, for me this is a very significant difference that, apart from the reasons mentioned, will keep me from buying any new Swiss Micros product.

Best regards,
