    Here is Australia, those resellers who carry Clevo only seem to have the D900C, not the D901C.

    I am interested to know the differences between the two models.

    I have also heard some bad reports about the build quality of the D900C - particularly the LCD hinges. Was this something specifically addressed in the D901C or are they the same in that regard ?

    d900c = blue
    d901c = black

    That's all.

    P.S. 6000th post :D

    It`s just the chasis color that differs. You can have the 926x in all forms,depending on the reseller.

    I believe Eurocom is the only North American vendor selling the D900C (Blue).

    LOL. Spoken by the person with an alias that denotes the "other" D901C color. ;)

    You can say that, yes... I know how the blue looks like on it, it's not bad, but I don't know...the higher number appeals to me :).

    The Blackhawk XR-5s that just shipped mid-January are D900C according to the POST screen, but they have the black chassis.

    If chassis colour is not the difference, what is ?

    Perhaps Justin or Donald could clarify ?

    My guess is there is a slight BIOS difference, as my post screen says "BIOS Version D900C"

    nope, D900C and D901C are exactly the same units... just color of chassis is different.

    If you want to talk about motherboard revisions, then its the same for both D900C and D901C at any one moment... as far as the ODM is concerned... the OEMs have to keep up to date as well.
