RE:"Dr. Yu refused to say how much on-die cache was on the processor he introduced today"

Perhaps because there was no L2?
I remember how high those cacheless Celerons (Paulerons} could scale.
Hummm. ANy idea how high a cachless Athlon will scale?

RE:"However, he did say it was unlikely that when Willamette launches on the 1st October or thereabouts, it would reach such 1.5GHz speeds. He said: "It's unlikely it will launch at that speed. This is a very first raw look at the silicon."
