Over the weekend I was doing some coding and needed to do some calculations in hex -- which is something I can't do on the 42S. You'd think that I'd be comfortable using the computer to do it, but I'm not that ready to change my ways.<br /><br />I have considered using an emulator, but its not the same.<br /><br />I think my next calculator will be a 27S.Joshua Reichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10303114242550248619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30876165.post-3511774091924116752006-12-11T22:36:00.000-08:002006-12-11T22:36:00.000-08:00josh,

My google alert on "HP-42S" articles just pointed me to your post.<br /><br />I love my HP-42S too.<br /><br />I don't know if you've stumbled on it, but I find that Free42 is a great substitute when I don't have my "real" HP-42 handy.<br /><br />http://home.planet.nl/~demun000/thomas_projects/free42/<br /><br />It is not as nice as pressing the "real" buttons, but other than that is a great substitute.<br /><br />I have tried the Windows version a little, but have set up the Palm OS version on my Sony Clie SJ22 as the default calculator.<br /><br />It even has the advantage over the real calculator that importing and exporting programs is relatively easy. I have downloaded and installed several programs to my Palm that I would likely never be bothered to put into the real calculator one keystroke at a time (with no practical means of backing them up there either).<br /><br />Best regards,<br />Bill Starr<br />Columbus, Indiana<br />http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/3770/<br />http://bill-starr.blogspot.com/<br />Fri, 8 Dec 2006, 8:38 am ESTBill Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08816801309226279055noreply@blogger.com
