Ah, my comment tags were interpreted as comments by LJ and hence swallowed - not helpful!
The first type has all of the content inside of the HTML comment (<!-- comment STUFF end comment -->); the second type has only the conditional comment code inside comments, with the actual content outside (<!--comment --> STUFF <!-- end comment -->)) - non-IE browsers will ignore the comment entirely, and just show the STUFF that is not enclosed with a comment.
