    There is a difference.

    One has brown dye put into the packaging, the other has green dye put into the packaging.

    Of course, everyone knows that the bright red ones go faster.

    The organic packcge on XPs were brown up til the launch of the XP 2100+ and then AMD changed to that lovely green color we're all fond of.

    Review samples of the new Thoroughbred are brown but apparantly the retail will be green :eyebrow:
