Tajima NEO TEJT II C1501 VS NEO TEJT C1501

Hi,
A quick question , does anybody know what are the differences between Tajima NEO TEJT II C1501 VS NEO TEJT C1501?
One of them is the price.

Thank in advance for your feedback.

The basic difference is how the machines receive design data. First generation Neos were sold with a 3 1/2 floppy disk reader. One issue with that is the disc readers can go bad. These machines can receive design information through a data cable that is purchased from Hirsch. Information is sent from the user's software directly to the Neo.

Neo 2 machines are equiped with USB, serial and LAN data ports. Design data can be transferred to the machine with a flash memory stitck rather than using a floppy disk drive.

I can't comment on whether there have been any hardware changes.
