200 vs 201 is:
- no touchpad vs optional touchpad
- Core2Duo vs Core iX
- that's pretty much it - well,appart from the supporting chips etc

normal vs s is:
- s can't have a webcam
- s can (and usually does) have 1440x900 TN panel
- getting a X201s in decent condition used is almost impossible
- s has a ULV CPU, which should be cooler and use less power,
  but in reality it does not really matter

all of them get the same batteries, same keyboards etc, so that should not be a dealbreaker
