'Save As' allows you to choose save destination, and file name. 

'Save' overwrites the open file where the save destination, and file name have already been selected.

the991: you can also change the extension of file in 'save as'
ssss963: Answer is Save allows you to save something you have saved before and you corrected it. Save as allows you to save something with a new identity. Identity can be name, location, file type. In other words, Save keeps edits/changes you made to the file you started working on. Frequent Saves are a good idea, especially if you are making long edits/contributions. If there is a system problem, you are likely only to lose material you added since the last Save. Save As creates a copy of the original.
