What is the difference b/w 3rd generation & 4th generation laptops with same specifications ?
 
Solution
The difference is most likely the Intel chipset and Core series processor.

Third generation chipset is QM/HM7x and Ivy Bridge is the third gen Core series CPU.

The fourth generation is QM/HM8x for the chipset and Haswell for the CPU.
Depends completely on what you are talking about. Really it is better to say it means absolutely nothing, because things change from model number to model number, and is too inprecise to judge by something so abstract.
