One was a 5150 (xt) the other was a 5170 (also XT)
If all fails look at the cpu:
XT 8088 or 8086
AT 80286 or later

Heh, Heh, now I don't feel so inadequate for knowing so little about DECs.
Aside from the front decals which identify them as a Personal Computer (a
PC 5150) , Personal Computer XT (5160), Personal Computer AT (5170)
there is a model # on the back. The IBM monitors were Mono 5151, CGA 5153,
Feels a little like telling Grace Bulloch what an Atari ST is. :^))
