To me a no floppy 5150 16KB-64KB would be missing a floppy controller

I thought that I remember reading somewhere that the difference was the
ROM version. There were two versions, one in early August, 1981, and one in
late-August (I have a FAQ on this somewhere, I just have to find it). The
early-August machines are *very* rare from what I have read.
