    well i dont really understand what your asking but ill do my best. are you saying wht is the difference between the matte and glossy, and what is the difference between Santa Rosa and Intel? well matte and glossy is just the two types of screens. Glossy is going to give you a shinier better looking picture, but it will also reflect light, which you might find annoying. Santa Rosa is an Intel processor it's just the newest version. hope that helps. ;)

    Why not just call the company on the telephone and ask them? That way you'll be 100% sure of the differences.

    That's what I was thinking..Because the majority of us speak English, I don't think a question like what does Cr and Intl can be answered when most of us order from Apple Stores or Apple.com. ;) Like eternal suggested, call up the vendor.

    When you order in Europe on apple.com you get a choice of keyboard, depending on which country you are in and if you prefer an International English keyboard or one with indigenous characters. I've got a German keyboard so I can do my äääää's and ööööö's :)

    I understand. In the United States, we have options for either English or Western Spanish. The link you provided for us was an outside dealer, so it's difficult to determine what those represent.

    You can simply choose the screen when you configure it from the Apple website. If you have to use a separate retailer, you're stuck with whatever options they have - contacting them directly is your best bet.
