RE: (HP-42S) CARDIAC
I don't recall programming anything terribly sophisticated with it. The original machine had only 7 instructions - one of them being stop - and no add instruction, just subtract and a combined load/negate. I was able to run various example programs on it, though, including one that would scroll a simple bitmap graphic across the "display" (very, very slowly, in the case of my emulator).

The TI-92 variety of Basic requires a lot of string handling for the type of indirection I was doing, so I wouldn't be surprised if the 42S could emulate it faster.
