I was wondering did anyone ever opened his calc??

I once did to find out what's inside...
well it is not more than two chips and a few dot of black stuff (with underneath even more silicon I guess). :unsure:

I did not dare opening it to much, since some "video" connectors where very short and I was/am afraid of breaking some.

Did anyone ever got more info on the chips inside the calc? I remember trying to look them up, but i never got any details.
Crystal speeds or something like that? Imagine overclocking your calc (and probably making it unusable, but that's a side effect ;) )!
I woulde love to hear some "inside" info!

ps. No I don't have any pic's on my opened calc...

Sorry, CasioFiend...

Dissection plans have been put on hold, for the moment. But I'll keep you informed.
