T41 diffferences (or link to model# differences)

[Thrasher]

I'm super close to buying a T41p wanting the power model for the additional:

- 512MB of RAM
- 60GB hard disk 7200 RPM
- DVD-ROM/CD-RW combo drive.
- 802.11a/b/g
- resolution of 1400 x 1050
- extended battery

But why am I seeing many adds online containing these exact specs, except the "p" is missing from the title? I thought only the "p" model came with these beefed up specs???

Seem to be the same machine minus the better graphics card, and it's labeled "23739FU" instead of "2373GEU" and with a much cheaper cost.

If these almost identicle T41p machines exist, where can I find detail specs regarding the different model numbers?

Would appreciate your opinions. Thanks.

Mike

The 23739FU is the top-of-the-line T41 (non-P). Differences between the T41 23739FU and T41p 2373GEU:

GEU has ATI Mobility FireGL T2 128mb Video (Radeon 9600, DirectX9)
9FU has the ATI Mobility Radeon 9000 32mb Video (DirectX8)

Other than that, they're the same.
