Bug Description
1. Go to <http://
2. Search for "thinkpad edge".
What you see:
* There are results for "Lenovo Thinkpad Edge 13 Laptop" and "Lenovo Thinkpad Edge 13 Laptop (with notes)".
* Judging by the component list, those two models appear to be completely different PCs.
What you should see:
* Model names should be distinct enough that you can tell models apart from different years. For example, "Lenovo Thinkpad Edge 13" (0221, March 2010)".

Moving to the new project as this would be nice to have and reduce confusion. Note, however, that manufacturers use their model names quite poorly and it may be impossible to distinguish them :( (i.e. Dell has reused the "Inspiron 15" model number for at least 5 years).
