    is 9400 and e1705 the same?
    i was thinking about purchasing a 9400 from dell small business since it is now on special for 40% off, but before i do i had a few questions..

    is 9400 and e1705 exactly the same except for the name and that window xp mce is not an option?

    ive had xp home and pro and feel its adequate for my needs. am i missing out on something huge with mce xp? i planned to just get xp home again.

    i currently run my monitor and 1024x 768 and its a non glossy screen. i notice many have upgraded to uxga trulife. i think i will not need the high res and i prefer non glossy. is there a diff reason to upgrade to uxga tru life?

    Yes for the most part it's the same machine. Like you pointed out certain options are not available.
