I have no use for the source code (nor all this fuss about it), so I'll just wait for the next normal firmware update and update as normal. I don't see the point of updating the firmware when there is no functional difference between the last firmware version and this new open source one.

Sounds like you might want a "print to file" option

No damage done, we're all friends here.

So I go back to my original question ....Why would I buy one instead of the other? (if they both existed today i.e. a DM42 and a DM43) Summary of answers so far: There IS NO DM43. The WP43s does not yet exist, so it cannot be purchased yet (https://sourceforge.net/projects/wp43s/) The WP43s is prob...

So yes I know it's a WP43s, as i said I got as far as fitting the label sheet a few years back and then didn't follow through reflashing it. How? It doesn't exist yet. The WP34s does. I suspect you're getting mixed up between the WP34s and the WP43s. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A...

Ooops I've just realised you typoed the model number and I copied you (edited to the correct 43s now)

No, I didn't. I was giving the example of the WP34s, which uses HP hardware. Please feel free to edit your post back.

WP43s. There's a whole thread about it here. Walter even names it a WP43s elsewhere: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=282&p=3885&hilit=Wp43s#p3885

Why? Casio made the HP10s (don't try to tell me differently, it's a [swear word censored] Casio clone), but that carries the HP label, so clearly there isn't always correlation between the manufacturer and the label on the calculator.

The hardware for the WP34s is HP, but it isn't called an HP34s.

Not a DM43s, as far as I can tell, a WP43s with DM42 (like) hardware.
