I'm not convinced that it is a Datamaster. The screen is too small, and the
screen bezel the wrong shape; the trim is the wrong colour (ok, maybe it's a BW
photo, but the trim on a System/23 isn't usually that dark that I know of).
And, as I said, System/23 is 5322, not 5051 or any of the other model numbers
we've been seeing here :-)

Well, the model number at the first URL (Thanks Reuben) is 5120 - so which is
correct?
I agree that the "5051" looks very like a "5120" - far more than it looks like a
Datamaster.
So perhaps it is a 5110 derivative...
