Question re. Offline Ubuntu Bundle Applications

[W2014]

Hi, I recently installed the Offline Bundle for Ubuntu on an dedicated offline computer.

The bundle contained 3 applications:

1) Armory (Test Network)
2) Armory
3) Armory (Offline)

I think I understand what 1) is for (Testnet transactions), but what is the difference between 2) and 3)? They seem identical except for the names.

Thank you!!!

They are the same when on an offline computer.  The "offline" version is really just for your online computer, if you want to force it to load in offline mode (there's a few reasons to do this, though most users don't require it).  When Armory is installed, it  has no way to know whether this is an offline computer, so it installs both anyway.
