        Actually the 4k Level 2 machine was a legitimate model...it
carried Tandy catalog# 26-1004, which was without the keypad. The
16k Level 2 machine was available both with (catalog# 26-1006) and
without (catalog# 26-1006-1) the numeric keypad. I don't believe
I've seen Model I's with the RAM capacity 'buttons' like the Model
III has though. One of my Model I's, without the keypad, carries
catalog# 26-1004D and has quite a few modifications done to it. My
other's are a catalog# 26-1006-1 (no keypad) and 26-1006 (with
keypad).
