definitely 101. I like to call that jutting projection up top the typical 101-browridge.
I actually have both of the boards here, in case you do need some comparison-pictures. Let me know^^.

Looks just like my At101w, but don't know if there is any reliable way to distinguish from the Quietkey.

I trawled through a dozen pages of ebay results for "dell keyboard" with various modifiers to weed out some of the crap... Two or three potential AT101s.

Thanks for the confirmation. :)

Just bought it. Cost about as much as shipping on most of the auctions by people who know what they are.

The way to tell between the two is the bezel above the F-keys. The AT101W has a huge bezel, while the Quietkey one is much smaller.

The space between the F-keys and numeric keys. On the AT101 and AT101W it is the size of a key, on the QuietKey it is smaller.
