If you use your brain for a minute you'll realize he meant it would probably run FASTER at introduction. Think about it "This is a very first raw look at the silicon" and they have a stable 1.5 GHz system running a presentation for hours. What will mature silicon do?

EP, who told you that they were running it at 1.5 G during the powerpoint conference? That's in dispute unless you have a new link to provide that verifies it without a doubt.

You yourself indicate that Willamette is a very immature chip....meaning potentially unstable....would you risk running one at top speed for two hours with the risk of a crash/goof like B. Gates a few years back? I doubt it.
