    best buy for business is mostly online availability. most stores don't have a lot of the models available in the best buy for business site

    Best Buy for Business has IMO better notebooks like the Asus G1S.

    regular best buys carry the g1s-x1 and the g1s-x3 (they are actually clearing out stock of the x1 to make room for the x3)

    the x1 comes with a t7300 processor - the other specs stay the same EXCEPT - you get no free bag, no free mouse, and the warranty is only 1-year instead of two - also, bb (this includes bb4b) doesnt participate in asus' "accidental damage" warranty (which is a 1 year warranty that covers any accidental damage)
