Too bad it is the sucky Mac, but a good step to increase their footprint in the market.

Even iFixit loved it.

Sharp EL-371H calculator teardown. Runs at 1.5 volts. The QFP48 chip has no text other than "9B JAPAN 9". The display has eight 7-segment digits plus some symbols and probably dots - around 67 elements total. 27 traces go to the display. Keypad has 24 buttons. (Previous owner's name redacted.)
