I /think/ the metal one (called >sometimes "Blech Diesel" there) didn't reach the same level of sales as >the plastic one with fan etc. In the 1980s, I read in a Finnish computer magazine that the 128D did not get FCC approval in the US, while the 128DCR (the metal one) got it. So, the 128D(CR) would have been released in the US some time after the 128D was released in the Europe. I got the same impression that the plastic 128D is more common in Europe than the metal 128DCR. I saw a 128DCR only once.
