window.location.replace vs. window.location =

Is there any difference between the last two lines?

<script language='JavaScript'>
     var url = "http://www.google.com/"; 
     window.location = url; 
     window.location.replace (url); 
</script>

The difference is how history is handled. "replace" won't give you the history.
