brushwd, What is the sensible reason for disabling half the cache? Demand is good? Market differentiation. Do you remember the 486SX? It was identical to the 486DX, except that the Floating Point Unit was disabled. Compaq once sold an ISA box for $500 less than an identical EISA box, with minor modifications to disable the EISA pins. This triggered the beginning of their huge stock run up in 1993! Scumbria
