Theres an 8/f which replaced the 8/e and has a
similar front panel with
extra markings
The 8/m - OEM no front panel
The 8/I has different front panel
The 8/A is a totally different box altogether
The 8/e was the big seller with thousands shipped
The 8/s was a small seller with 10's of computers shipped.
I got to play with both.
