Title: Square label Model M 1390131 from *1988*
Post by: MissileMike on Fri, 26 November 2010, 20:48:15

Usually the 1390131 is from 86, and sometimes 87.  As i browse clickykeyboards, they did make them from other years, but seem to be rare, like this one on ebay right now (http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-IBM-1390131-M-Clicky-Keyboard-OCT-1988-/290504993286?pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs&hash=item43a3726a06)

Given that the PC/AT was made up till 1987 (and possibly later), they would have been produced at least that late. There's later ones which were presumably made as spare parts.

Not sure why they'd bother - at that stage they would have just been 1391401s with AT cables and a different logo on the case.
