So far as I can tell, they use the eleven letters and numbers in the following format: XX#XX###### I'm sure that the last six digits are the run numbers. But can anyone provide some clarity to the first 5 letters/numbers? What would an HN2GF####### serial number mean? Nobody knows? I don't recall if anyone's said what the HN means (I suspect it is probably something to do with the model of camera body or lens that it sits upon) and the F in your example may well be something like the particular factory it was produced in, or vice versa (but both of these are educated guesses). However, I do know/remember what the third and fourth digits signify.

The 2 in your example means 2012 (2013 would be 3 and so on) and the G means July, in an A=January to L=December sequence. Signifying date of manufacture, as you have already realised, I expect.

Descargar telenovela baila conmigo capitulo. I used to see it sometimes and I like the coupling of Pilar and Eddie. They make a great couple and the relationship between Eduardo Capetillo and Bibi Gaytan made one big step, leading it to their marriage. This is one great old school show for young people if it comes out to DVD and video one of these days.

1) What is the FULL MK or Mark model # of your unit? Turn on your Toughbook, when you see the PANASONIC LOGO hit the 'F2' key to see your BIOS screen. How can I determine my Toughbook's full model number and serial number? This information is located on a barcoded label on the bottom of the Toughbook.

I had a feeling that the 2 was the model year, but I was unsure about the letter signifying the month of manufacture. Much appreciated response.

It is only helpful when there are issues with introductory runs, or issued that were addressed later.
