LC-842_PCB.jpg (90555 Byte)This LC-842 looks totally different to all other Toshiba calculators. Instead the brushed metal housing of a LC-830 it uses a plastic top mounted on a metal plate. Even the printed circuit board looks different to the original design. Quality matches with the LC-8000.

The successor of the LC-842 could be found with the odd HB-101.
