How can I identify what submodel an AT is? I mean, if I have a 5170 339, where do I find information that this is 339? On the sticker at the back of the unit is only written Model 5170.

It isn't written anywhere on the machine. But 339 can be identified by the following:

-IBM Type III Planar (this is the only one that runs at 8MHz)
-IBM Model M keyboard

The model 319 is basically the same, but with the standard 84 key keyboard instead.

Thanks. I requested photos of the interior of the AT from the seller, so soon I will be able to tell what model it is.
