Question about HP-42s manual - salvomic - 12-29-2017 05:21 PM

hi,
I wonder if there is an Italian manual (printed) for HP-42s, or it's only in English.

Thanks,
Salvo

I would expect an Italian version to exist, but the MoHPC document set only has it in English, German, French, Spanish, and Portuguese. There's surprisingly little Italian in that set, considering it's one of the major languages of Europe.

thanks for info, Thomas.
It would be nice to have HP-42s (and also Prime) manual in that language!
I come from Italy, I could collaborate if it's needed, in my spare time...

My NIB replacement unit surely has an italian manual, albeit not the original printed, but a photostatic repro (everything with a gray background is blurry) on recycled paper and in ring bindings.

Well, Massimo.
A new toy, HP42s, will be here next week but I reckon without a manual, so I'm searching one, Italian or English one, even if I'd prefer Italian.
Definitely I've downloaded also the PDF.

I bought almost everything abroad.
But I had quite a few good bargains (usually on lots) here, too.

He's talking about Italy and you're answering in French?

you are right, they are expensive, but Massimo also is right: here sometimes we can have «quite a few good bargains (usually on lots) too»...
