Michael Allured notes that the second Titanium PowerBook he received came with a newer version of the Software Install CD. The first PowerBook had CD version 1.1, whereas the second came with version 1.2 (the version number is printed on the CD itself). Here is what's different:

• Energy Saver 3.0.4
• Keyboard 8.5.4
• Sound 8.5.4
• Startup Disk 9.0.2
• AMD 2.1.2
• Apple Audio Extension 1.3.3

• ATI Rage 128 3D 6.1.6
• ATI Resource manager 2.8.7
• Carbon Lib 1.2.5 (installed, I didn't have to download)
• DVD Navigation Manager 2.5
• DVD Navigation Monitor NV 2.5 (was not on other system)
• DVD Video Interface 1.0 (was not on other system)

• URL Access 2.3 (Installed, I didn't have to update)

  The following NVIDIA files were not on the first system:

• NVIDIA 2D Acceleration 1.1.1
• NVIDIA Driver Update 1.1.1
• NVIDIA DVD Accelerator 1.1.1
• NVIDIA engine 1.1.1

It would appear based on this and other email we have received that there are now quite a few< variants of Mac OS 9.1 in circulation.
