My HP-41CV with embossed logo is visible on my home page. Here is a better close picture: [attachment=11061] Serial number is 2102A00xxx , so as yours, doesn't follow the SN "rule" for 41CV. But it has a gold keyboard border and slanted keys *except* the gold shift key which is a tall key, see a picture here. My best explanation is that the embossed label has been used for pre-production CV machines, that would explain the non-standard characteristics: SN, keyboard border colour, tall keys. But I would happy to know more, and especially how many machines with embossed logo still exist. J-F |

Mentioned here.Can you post the link for this embossed CV badge photo? Hello Jean-Francois I saw this special CV you have twice on Internet. I have no knowledge were these HP-41 made. A special edition may be direct from HP, or maybe produced by an HP club? You can see in the two following pictures the backside from a HP-41C and a very early HP-41CV. The very early HP-41CV has a completely different sticker on the backside with “Made in U.S.A.” than the HP-41C. Can you please post a picture from your backside, this will probably bring lighter into the topic. Many thanks HP-41C HP-41CV |

I sometimes use Firefox HTTPS relaxed when visiting here, as many images and attachments here are sourced all over the place. I prefer FF over Chrome hoovering up all I do.

Even as another Firefox user, I still think the answer to that doesn't matter. The real issue is that people are still using http. If those images had been hosted on an https server, as everything should be these days, this would never have even come up. I enabled https for my site in 2016, and started forcing it in 2017 (any http request redirects to the corresponding https address), because the service LetsEncrypt made it so anyone can get a certificate for https for free, so there is no longer a cost excuse for not using https. That was 5 years ago, and I tend to be one who is very slow at adopting new things. This forum also uses LetsEncrypt (though I believe the switch here was years later). |
