Hmm... I guess I'm going to need to know the same thing, when I get
around to opening up the E01..

I think Rick Murray might have one -

I've never heard of another surviving..


If they really do issue serial numbers in order... I've now got the
8th E01 !  And either they changed the design of the cases between 8 &
84, or someone disassembled both the E01 & E20 on one set and put the
lids on back to front on both, as the vent slots have moved..
