The 380ED is one of the last models in the 3xx series and was manufactured from September 1998. The device is robust, but also bulky and heavy.

My device is visually in very good condition. As the 380ED is not rubberised, there is no need to remove sticky residue from the casing. The BIOS battery is of the CR1220 type and is still easy to obtain. When it is empty, the usual 00161 and 00163 errors occur. Replacing the hard drive is less trivial - the entire keyboard has to be removed.

The screen of my device shows artefacts outside the centre when switched on. I’m still not sure whether this is due to cable or inverter damage. The speakers have a mechanical volume control.
