I have an even later DM42 (SN 05401) than yours, and the keyboard on it is a complete nightmare.

Fortunately for me. Although I agree the DM15L keyboard is better, I think it's even better than the keyboard of my original HP12C (2nd hand unit, SN 2741A08800, that is made in 1987 I thought).

The only issue I have with it is that the yellow paint from the "o" in "complex" is partially missing but that does not bother me enough to send it back for that (and maybe get a replacement with a bad keyboard?)
