Need some help on what BTCO means. I recently purchased A Hp x4000 from Ebay. Whille looking up the model number on the HP website I found out my x4000 workstation model is Workstation X4000 (BTCO). I have never seen this type of designation tied to A computer before.

Any assistance on this question would be much welcomed.

Cheers!

Matthew

You've never heard of it because it's most likely an HP internal designation, and no other company uses it. I was thinking it might be a variation of BTO (build to order).

You might get better answers from somewhere like PC Perspective or HardOCP forums, which have a more general user base.
