@Boo:

Like conversions of measurement units or integer format (hex, dec, bin) are super un-efficient and sometime just refuse to work (I struggled with C° to F° conversions and did it manually, much faster!).


I too had trouble with this because unit conversion is a mess in RPN entry mode. However, it's very slick in algebraic. No reason it has to be so hard in RPN but until it gets fixed this little bit of code has made the Prime vastly more usable for me:

YMMV but this has made all the difference in usability for me.

Integer format conversions now work nicely in RPN with the latest firmware so if you can get that loaded it will help. I had no problem doing the update via the Connection Kit running under VMware Fusion so you may just have to fiddle with your virtual environment some more to get it to work.
