The major differences are 2400 on motherboard video(no AGP slot
and shared memory) and sound, no mount for a second hard drive,
although they are available through spare parts,
and slower processor options.

The 4100 can have cards for video and sound comes with
2nd hard drive bracket and in general is a more upgradeable package.
Particularly on the small business site faster processors are offered.
