50g Serials
Message #1 Posted by Tim Wessman on 2 Sept 2007, 8:43 p.m.

Just out of curiosity. . .what is the "closest" serial number match that anyone has? I mean the internal serial number in comparison to the external sticker. Anyone have anything identical?

Hi Tim.
On my 50G:
sticker ---> CNA61806215
SERIAL ---> CNA6200958
I guess I won't be the winner ;-)
Best regards.

External: CNA63802810
Internal: CNA6301349

Since the serial # format is YWWnnnn the only way they would be the same is if the calc is assembled the same week as the chip (ROM, flash?) is programmed, and even then the following digits are probably assigned sequentially and seem to have 4 digits internally and 5 digits externally. In oyher words, I doubt they would ever be identical.

I think the outside stickers have a 5 digit count. I've never seen anything other than a 0 on the first digit of the five though on any of the units I've sold.
