    Well since Toxis is installed to the flash memory on the DMS4 pro, you can't really switch between the two as such. But you can run HDL from the Browser in ToxicOS v.41

    As for HDL, I'm not overly sure on this one, and certainly don't want to upset anyone with any of the following comments.

    From what "I" understand HDL was playing catchup to Toxic, so that HDL could have the same/similar compatibility to that of TOS, but I could be wrong.

    There are a few things HDL has over TOS that I like, like the increased list display etc, but functionality, I'm not sure.

    HDL patched = Free
    Huge advances WITHOUT source info increasing compatibility some which has it seems been put into toxic

    Toxic = Paid
    Small advances though WITH source HDL info therefore easy to make newer games compatible


    both seem to be less updated recently though no major reason too unless you like scarface
