Good question.  Here's how I understand it:

750 series - 486SL/33, 4MB RAM standard, 2.88MB floppy, 9.5" mono screen, 
Crystal Semi sound (SB emulation in software), max 8-bit color
   P:  +Pen, folding screen
   Cs: +10.4" dual scan color
   C:  +10.4" TFT
   Ce: +10.4" TFT, 486DX2/66?, special order model only

755 original series - 486DX4/75, 4MB RAM standard, 1.44MB floppy, no mono 
model, Crystal Semi sound (SB emulation in software) with built-in mic, 
max 16-bit color.
(As 750 but new processor, 1.44MB floppy, 16-bit color, no mono model, +mic)
   Cs: +10.4" dual scan color
   C:  +10.4" TFT

755CD/CV series - 486DX4/75, 8MB RAM, 1.44MB floppy, no mono model, DSP  
modem and hardware SB compatible, max 16-bit color, IR port, MIDI out.
(As 755 but 8MB RAM, DSP, IR, MIDI out)
   CD:  +10.4" TFT, video/s-video in/out, CD-ROM drive
   CV:  +10.4" TFT usuable on overhead
   CDV: all features of CD and CV

755CE series - 486DX4/100, 8MB RAM standard, 1.44MB floppy, no mono model,
DSP modem and hardware SB compatible, max 16-bit color, IR port.
(As 755 but 486DX4/100, 8MB RAM, DSP, IR)
   CE:  +10.4" TFT
   CE:  +10.4" TFT (800x600)
   CSE: +10.4" dual scan color

They all come (came) with different standard hard drive sizes, but
they're all interchangable (the 750 series needs a BIOS update to
use the 540+MB drives).  Did I miss anything?
