Need to rehabilitate HP calculator--advice
I have an HP 32S II that apparently has working electronics, but
a sticky keypad. If I could safely pry the case apart, I could
probably fix it. Does anyone know where I could go to get advice
about prying it open? Is there a newsgroup where they discuss
calculators?
I don't want a modern HP calculator. I want good old RPN.

You could try comp.sys.hp48. That group deals mainly (these days)
with the 49G+ and the 33s, but some of the people there remember
the earlier models. But the best place is http://hpmuseum.org
(The Museum of HP Calculators). There's a discussion forum there
(http://www.hpmuseum.org/cgi-sys/cgiw...seum/forum.cgi) with lots
of people who can tell you all about cleaning, maintaining and repairing
vintage HP calculators.
