Re: [cobalt-users] Sun Cobalt Part Number Confusion

["Blue Raq" <raqblue@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Now this one is easy, the second part number is the old cobalt one. All Sun 
Cobalt part numbers internally now start with CBT- (you may guess that 
stands for Cobalt) the end letter denotes the country, U used to be for US, 
A used to be for Australia, now it is M for US & Australia.

So the product is the same, but the only one that is orderable is the 
CBT-R46GJGIM because this is the current code (also a heck of a lot cheaper)

Hope that helps, I can break down the rest of the code for you if you wish, 
but it seems a bit geeky.
