    There are green and blue models of the debug hardware. Theres about 12 of them in a cupboard where i used to work. The lasers are very dodgy so if your thinking of using it i would replace the laser unit.

    As far as I know the green ones were used to test the error checking of games, ie they randomly caused errors when trying to read from CD or memory card. What the blue ones were used for I'm not sure (but they do have the extra 6 megs of RAM if I'm not mistaken).

    I'm not sure if theres a difference between PAL and NTSC units because:
    - they use an AC adapter, instead of direct AC input
    - they are region-free

    I think so, if the games passed their tests fine ;-)
    (they should occassionally give error messages on saving but should work fine after a retry)
