    I went to the config page to decode this but one didgit does not show up, a D, third from the end. Anyone know what it stands for?
    ---CF28stjgDzm is the number. The rest match as listed.
    Thanks for any help,
    Fred
    P.S. Toughbook #2, a CF18 is on its' way to me, darn aditction! :D :D

    Neither the "D" or the "Z" show up in the configurator. Is that the model number that shows in the BIOS?

    I am just guessing but;
    If you have a COA for windows 2000 on the bottom of your mk-3 and you don't have an optional GPS or Antenna for a WWAN modem
    Your model # most likely is CF-28STJGZDM
    Third digit from the end is commonly a Z for no optional wwan or gps
    And the second from the end is commonly a K for xp or it’s a D for win 2000
