Thank you so much Walter for the manual. It is brillant. I read it to familiarize with my C47 (on DM 42) and even if it is not a 100% fit to the WP34 it is still extremely useful and a pleasue to read and work through.

Congratulations Walter and everyone else who has contributed! Your passion and perseverance appears to have paid off. And well done to Swiss Micros too. PS. “digits” is pronounced with a soft ‘g’ [di- djits] and “hoch vier” is “to the power of four”.

For those interested in the WP43 there is a statement on the SwissMicros forum that is relevant.

thank you for uploading the video.

This presentation is great but even better @ x1,5 or x1,75 speed. ;-)

Could you add the possibility of an "infinity" stack like hp48,49,50 series?

that's available on the DM42 in case you weren't aware. Walter is a big fan of a limited stack from what I understand.

When will it be available?

Where can I buy this? It seems not to be "vaporware".

It looks like the group that is building it is on the Swiss Micros forum

Swiss Micros should have pre-orders open early 2023 on their website.

Any chance someone could take pity on me and give me an actual hyperlink to the emulator and manual referred to in this talk? Or is this a secret society with the test of worthiness being the ability to a) find the SwissMicros forum which does not seem to be linked from their landing page, and b) find the relevant post amongst all the search results for 'DM43' (and did they change the name before or after)! I second @retroestudio on the desire for an infinite stack. This is a better way of entering matrices. Put the numbers on the stack, execute a function to roll these up into a vector, then roll a stack of vectors up into a square matrix. There are other use cases such as multiply accumulate operations and cost/quantity lists.

1,000 "diggits" for pi. Lol. I'm sure my Spanish sounds just as silly.

Nerds are not known for their social skills and he gave a reference to where to look him up, which is all that matters in science.

He said, "Sanjeep ...[started to try and pronounce his last name]. I don't remember the last name...but you can read it. An Indian guy." There is nothing wrong, untactful or disrespectful with that statement. It is no different than if the guy he was referring to was Polish, with a hard to pronounce last name, and he said, "A Polish guy." I work with a lot of people from all over the world and some names are in fact hard to pronounce for nonnative speakers.

@@HeyBirt I work with a lot of people from all over the world and do my best to remember and pronounce their names. And they mine (which is, in fact, hard to pronounce). We're all developers, we're all nerds. It's common decency.

You are still trying to cast fault on this guy who did nothing wrong. Now you are claiming he is indecent because he can't remember someone's name? Methinks you're trying too hard to make something of nothing...
