RE: DM42.
Awesome. I've owned one for a while now. It has really grown on me over time. I feel like the keyboard software changes they have made have really improved the overall experience for me (though this could just be me getting used to the keypad overtime).
I also really like this machine, I find myself calculating stuff on it I could easily do in my head, just to get the chance to use it. |

Oh, and a piece of hair under the display (it arrived like this) which I was told to fix myself by somehow levering off the display glass which I was too scared to do. I do otherwise like the calc. |

Several users have reported a big improvement, again because how people press keys varies. Suggest you watch this excellent video by Logan West: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDxVxw6_SKU it explains, and shows, an easy and safe technique for softening the key-press and many users have reported a big improvement. --Bob Prosperi |

RE: DM42.
Hi,
I agree, keyboard is very good, no difference here with the keyboard of my HP42s. Very smooth and precise. A real pleasure to program on DM42 like HP41, HP42 in the past ! I love RPN, not too much RPL, and I love PPL. Good day. Gérard. |

RE: DM42.
Hello all,
I have a small collection of HP calculators. Recently I became interested in the SwissMicro HP clone of the HP42s. I am considering purchasing one. But I have a question or two. It does not seem to come with a manual but appears to rely on the HP42s manuals(there appear to be a couple of them), or One can download a pdf copy of the manual. I'm not keen on pdf documents. They are difficult to cross reference when reading on line and they are very large when printed. What is the situation? |
