S157 is not the model number of the laptop, it's the configuration
suffix. A typical model number is "2805-S202" or 1415-S173". The model
numbers here are 2805 and 1415, respectively. The suffix gives the
configuration (CPU speed, memory and disk drive size, presence of
options, etc.) of machines that are the same basic model number.
What is the model number?
