Friedrich..
Mr. Hetherington has stated the add abilities of the 770 over the 600 quite
clearly..

only consider your main uses..
if you want to have more flexability and a desktop replacement, then the 770
is the machine..
if more portable operation rather than a more portable desktop is your
desire, AND you feel that you will not soon want the ultrabay and the
options available for it, then the 600 is for you...

also note that these machines have a very short shelf life..
in 4 to 6 months the next version will be available and each (770 & 600)
will then have even MORE features and improvements...

of course, there is a prioce differential of about $1100 USD as well.. :-)
the 770ED is about $5500 and the 600 (top model) is about $4400..
