Shopping Personal compared to Shopping Business

Hi I was just looking on the site and was for example looking at the surface book 3.

What is the difference shopping normal compared to business?

To compare the personal 15ich, 32GB, 1TB - $4759 + $279 for accidental damage

Business Shopping 15ich, 32GB, 1TB - $4909 but doesn't show and extra for damge - was it included in the price?

Also business notes the graphic card type and other doesnt - as far as I can see it is same spec
