As it stands right now, the following two firmware versions are confirmed to be MCU2.
2018.6.50
2018.10.1
Anything else is MCU1.
(subject to change).

Model S/X deliveries with Intel-based MCU

Today I visited a Tesla showroom, and sat in a brand new Model X, opened the browser, went to 'What's my UA' site, and can confirm that the 'cpu' was listed as 'undefined'.
However, then visited http://teslamcu.xyz and confirmed NEW MCU. Even prior to that it was quite clear that the performance was the new Intel MCU. The browser is quite responsive, as well as Nav zooming, etc.
In summary, 'cpu: undefined' does not mean MCU1. Use the handy http://teslamcu.xyz site that our good friend here on TMC created.
If one isn't willing to offer a retrofit, the next best thing is to pre-announce that a new MCU is coming at a higher price, and give customers the option to choose the newer configuration, or the older configuration, for x number of days (let's say 90). Since the new config. is at a higher price, resale value is maintained, at least temporarily. After those 90 days, all cars default to the newer configuration, and the price possibly drops, or possibly stays the same, depending on how customers reacted to the new option. I believe Tesla has launched new battery pack options this way at least once before.
For whatever reason (weak demand, or a product management miscalculation) that was not done here, even though there is clear value add with the new MCU, and some people are willing to pay a premium for it. It's not too late for Tesla to change their policy, but I doubt they will.

So we have a contradiction:
both “CPU undefined”
& 1018.10.1
Is “CPU undefined” no longer the indicator of an older MCU?
Correct, 'cpu: undefined' does not mean MCU1. Use http://teslamcu.xyz. Also, it's super obvious when you use the Nav and Browser if you are using the Intel MCU (aka MCU2).
Audi is using a mix of Nvidia and Mobileye (and others) in their zFas computer running the new L3 Audi A8:
I would guess Audi and Mobileye saw eye to eye with their slow/conservative approach in contrast to Teslas aggressive/agile approach (more here).
I can’t tell you how much that eases my mind.
My MS 100D production: 3/9-3/15
DS confirmed new MCU to OA yesterday.
These posts were causing anxiety all over again.

Exactly. I did that to both our Model S trunks (no colors, just white). For interior, I'd start with brighter light bulbs first (in the trunk I wanted light from the top, not the floor, so mounted LED's under the shelf holders).

The Tegra in that picture is not the AI/neural network generation, so it doesn't compete with MobileEye.

Yes, please see my post here: Model S/X deliveries with Intel-based MCU
whatsmyua is giving inconsistent results, as it's just a database lookup of previous UA queries from three different open source sources on github. It's not specific to Tesla or MCU version. Use http://teslamcu.xyz/ instead.

Abstract Ocean’s LEDs should be stock until they do a full color LED upgrade. The single easiest, best bang for the buck upgrade.

For the trunk the "best bang for the buck" for me was a simple homemade lighting (costed me less than $10, could have been $4 if I wanted to wait a few weeks to ship it from China, details with photo at Trunk Lighting Upgrade).
Yea you probably do have the new MCU. Just go to the other site on jsfiddle as mentioned.
Everyone who’s had MCU1 has build dates before 2/28.

Let's play jeopardy
I need to make some changes to the page because it incorrectly has an empty value for `Navigator.platform` for the 2018 MCU (because I didn't know what it was). It doesn't affect the functionality of the page, but I don't like being entirely incorrect
Unfortunately JSFiddles can't be changed once published if you link to a specific revision. I made the JSFiddle page, but I don't own or control the `teslamcu.xyz` domain name. Do we know who controls it?
@rjyoungmd has confirmed MCU2 in his MX delivered on Friday. Received a software update, presumably related to the problem with the instrument cluster going blank. So now we can add 2018.10.2 to the MCU2 list.

@Tony_YYZ does.

One last update from me. My deposit has officially been transferred over from the old order to the new one. The old car is now gone from my Tesla account, and the new one has been ordered and will be confirmed on 3/22.
Let the waiting begin, again.
