33s Decimal Point Message #1 Posted by Matt Agajanian on 6 Nov 2012, 8:28 p.m. Hello all. I would like to determine if the 33s I have is one with the redesigned decimal point in the display. What serial number designates the start of the newly designed 33s display? Thanks Edited: 6 Nov 2012, 8:28 p.m.

Re: 33s Decimal Point Message #3 Posted by Matt Agajanian on 6 Nov 2012, 8:45 p.m., in response to message #2 by Gerson W. Barbosa Am I seeing things or is the top 1/4 of the bottom row of digits blue on the new display? I'm sorry. Just what exactly am I looking for in the difference of the displays? It's very difficult to notice the difference between the decimal points in the two photo. Thank you.

Re: 33s Decimal Point Message #4 Posted by Gerson W. Barbosa on 6 Nov 2012, 8:50 p.m., in response to message #3 by Matt Agajanian Here is the original thread: http://www.hpmuseum.org/cgi-sys/cgiwrap/hpmuseum/archv015.cgi?read=82838 Please read message #40 for Jeff's more detailed explanations. Notice the digits are slightly narrower in the newer display, thus leaving more room for the dots and commas. Regards, Gerson. Edited: 6 Nov 2012, 8:53 p.m.
