What has the DM41 extra over the HP42s?
Let me begin to admit that I never owned or used a HP41. From what I have read here, the 41 could do 1 thing all its successors could not: interface with external hardware via some kind of (serial?) port.

This is exactly the function the DM41X has not. It can send its output to a printer but that's it.

So I am curious if there is anything I don't know about that the DM41X can do that the DM42 can't. The programming model should be nearly identical, and I see that Thomas is already porting specific 41 functions to Free42 so I expect those to become available with a firmware update for the DM42 somewhere in the future.
