This is the manual for use with the Sorcerer 2. There is a
silver label on the bottom of your Sorcerer that gives important
information about your computer. The first five digits of the
serial number give the date of manufacture. The next several
digits are specific to the individual unit and then if you have
a Sorcerer 2 there are the letters II. Next comes the voltage
designation.
For example, serial number 10299 528 II 220V indicates a
Sorcerer 2 manufactured on 29/10/69, unit number 528 of 220V
voltage.
