Can anyone tell me what is the difference between 2373 is and the 2379 series?

I am looking into two T42's 2373KXU & 2379DYU, just want to know if one is better then the other.

Thanx in advance.

The 2379 series are called "express" models - models IBM hopes to sell a lot of. Otherwise no difference in 2373 and 2379. I'm sure you know that the -KXU and DXU have different processors, HDDs, batteries, and amount of memory.

Thank you, I just don't see the reason for doing this, why not just lower the price or have some sort of special.

Maybe that explains it?

The 2379 is an express (high volume) model with a 3 year warranty. The 2378 is the same express model with a 1 year warranty. And that must make the 2373 a low volume model with a 3 year warranty (?)

actually this is business. IBM just adds a plastic and changes the model number and puts more price on it.

I personally will just look at the processor, memmory and display options in a laptop.
