ThinkPad Help Center Version 2.00 n versus o usage

If you take the readme files literally [in the past some monumental mistakes on some of these!] the version 2.00n release of the ThinkPad Help Center is for many machines including say the T400 and T410.

However, there is a newer version 2.00o version that has a readme stating that only a small list of T410 and the like work for this newer release.

Any idea if this is true? Clearly either version installs; how can you tell if it is non-functional? [In Add or Remove Programs it can clearly be determined by looking at the support section, etc.]

And of course, what, if anything distinguishes 2.00 n from 2.00 o anyway?

cjl [I can send some "interesting" readme revisions from other Lenovo updates that were total fairytales corrected in newer releases, but this one is the latest release...]

The problem is solved!

Lenovo just released version 2.01g [have no idea what happened to a through f] but this trumps the entire problem.

Version 2.01g supports all the same machines as did 2.00n, thus the issue is moot; it replaces both versions.

Curiously, changes indicate <nothing>.

cjl [perhaps just a faux release to cover the embarrassment of the bad readme file?]
