Goutama,

<<Where is the FSB speed set? Wafer sort? Some where else?>

My guess is that it's done at final test (after the parts are packaged) where speed binning is also done>

If is not sort then it is likely to be at Final test. May be PB can clarify. I have no insight into how this bus-lock thing is implemented. If someone knows I am all ears.

<Higher ASPs than the ones with 100MHz FSB>

IMHO, the premium is going to be so small going forward, I do not know if it is worth the operational trouble unless there is some other thing driving it - especially given CuMine is around the corner. I just responded to Tenchusatsu on the same issue in the last post.
