I have decided to buy an Advanced mini-dock (2504) for my T60 2008-CTO with ATI x1400 to connect EIZO EV2436W monitor through DVI, but after few days of researching I am bit confused how many different FRU numbers they had

FRU: 42W8299, 42W4630, 42W4620, 42W4621, 42W4637

I have note one of them are with just ThinkPad logo, some with IBM ThinkPad, but I can not say the differences.
Any help?

E.g.

There are often multiple FRU numbers for the same part, with only some cosmetic changes. There are no functional differences between the IBM logo and the Thinkpad logo docks. Just make sure you get the 2504 mini-dock and not the 2505 port replicator (which looks very similar but lacks many useful functions).
