The Aesthetics of the HP42s Saturn Processor
Hi all,

a while ago I had to resolder the RAM-chip of an HP42s, which I had bought cheaply at an auction. While it was opened I took out the pcb to take some pictures of the Saturn processor.

While the chip itself is a sheer beauty, its presentation on the pcb in the HP42s is particularly stunning. Unfortunately its best side is the one between the pcb and the keyboard. What a phantastic mod that would be when it could be watched from outside through an acrylic bottom cover.

I put some hi-res pics behind a Dropbox-Link if anyone is interested.
