What is the difference between the jetboil classic and the jetboil...

What is the difference between the jetboil classic and the jetboil flash? I was at REI the other day and nobody was able to answer my question. It's more than $20 cheaper than the Flash so if it exactly the same or close to it then I will save the $20 and get the Classic

so the PCS classic is the original Jetboil. The flash has an upgraded burner, auto ignitor, comes with a fuel stand and has a heat indicator on the cup coozie to indicate that water is coming to a boil.
