- I recently tried to get my name and SIN number engraved on my HP48
- figuring to make it at least slightly more secure, but when I tried the
- key houses and engraving shops kept turning me away, saving that most
- plastics will melt when they try to engrave it, hence they won't even try.
- Has anyone else had this problem? How do you mark your calculators, or do
- you, I figure most people are like me in that after they shell hundreds
- of dollars for these supper calcs, they like to put thier name on them.
- Maybe I just have to find the right shop.
