    Looking at the specifications, they seem virtually identical except for the TT's HDMI out.

    What are the main differences between the two?

    Thanks,
    UL

    I thought you settled on a Z and also bought a P8020? Anyway, to answer your question.

    TT upgradeable to 8GB 800mhz memory and the TZ is upgradeable to 2GB 667mhz memory.
    TT has a SU9300-SU9600 (1.2ghz-1.6 ghz 800mhz processor)
    TZ has a core 2 duo 533mhz processor (1.06-1.33ghz).
    TT uses 4500HD graphics, TZ uses GMA 950 which is two generations old
    TT uses a Microsata drive and can address full Sata II speeds.
    TZ uses a zif drive and is stuck using PATA speeds.
    Some TT models also come with a bluray drive.

    The biggest difference is the graphics card and ram.
