I missed this earlier.

From experience as an IT bod "Business Class" usually means that they are less compact and flashy so that us Dilberts in the IT support dept can swap out components more easily without having to dismantle it all or risk damaging a fancy shiny cover or something. The components inside tend to be the same, or in the case of F****su slightly inferior - including memory modules only available at the PC World branch in Narnia.
