    The X-1 is a $100 cheaper than the A-1, and so far the only difference I can find in the specs is that the A-1 has a larger hard drive.

    Could someone please let me know what I'm missing? I.e., what other features -- if any -- the U43JC-A1 has (or has better of) that the U43JC-X1 doesn't.

    TIA.

    The X1 is missing Bluetooth. Which for me is a deal breaker. I went with the A1.

    In addition, the X1 only comes with a 1 year global warranty while the A1 has 2 years.

    I've seen on some resellers' sites that the A1 has a lock slot; can anyone confirm this?
