RE: 38E disassembly
Be careful pressing the sides of the top case inwards. This case design is thinner and less durable than earlier Classic models and can crack almost the full length of the calculator.

Also, be careful when removing the CPU/Keyboard. The six plastic "latches" holding the assembly in position can also crack or break off.

On re-assembly, there are 4 plastic alignment posts inside the top case half - about 2mm in diameter. These can also break off if the keyboard assembly is not lined up properly and "forced" into position - especially the two towards the display window which fit into 2 small holes.

cheers

Tony
