Something doesn't feel right about this 1390131
Posted: 08 Aug 2014, 02:30
To my knowledge, 1390131 means square logo and AT cable.
Now, since SDL cables are trivially swappable, the cable doesn't mean much.
However, the 1390131 I have here features a PS/2 cable, an oval logo, and a strange Xeroxed-look label.

The board looks like a 1391401 in all but label.
Now, I could see a few possibilities:
* Actual rare product-- oval logo 1391031.
* Hybrid - start with 1390131, replace top cover (or conversely, replace bottom on 1391401)
* Weird fraud or warranty thing (explains sticker?)
Now, I'm not too irate yet... it's still a buckling spring board and I paid an okay price for it, but I wouldn't have bought it if it wasn't a 1390131.
