It's fine if they change between models but a single model should never have 
multiple values.

To be fair, it’s happened before… once recently with the Venue line, and 
another time about seven years ago with the Precision line.  I think the recent 
Venue example is a result of Dell offshoring their BIOS development.  (Just my 
guess.)

I think I am operating on faulty information.  Both of the two 5810s I have are 
reporting ‘Precision Tower 5810’ back to SCCM.  I would swear that wbemtest 
showed Precision T5810 when I was setting up the first one to get the driver 
pack going,  but this is probably a false alarm.  Sorry about that.

I’m asking for the details from our product teams and will share/publish them 
when I get them.

The new generation of Precision workstations are definitely called “Precision 
Tower” instead of the old “T” prefix.  Having said that, I’ve not seen any of 
them that have used the old naming convention.  I think they’re dropping the 
alpha prefix from all models going forward.

Thanks for the heads up, their E5430s caused headaches for us when they called 
them “Latitude E5430 non-vPro”.

Subject: [MDT-OSD] Dell changing model names?

heads up…

I think Dell might be adjusting their model names.  I had a new precision a few 
weeks ago with the model name Precision T5810.  Today I received one with the 
model name ‘Precision Tower 5810’.  This sort of change will require reworking 
of any task sequences you might have that detect model name and then apply an 
appropriate driver pack for that model or update BIOS or anything else you have 
based on WMI filters for Model name.

I hope this doesn’t turn into a fiasco.   Does anyone here know what is going 
on?
