(1) M__a__x makes a good point about cache / 700MHz

The 1GHz tbird should womp all other the 1GHz athlon, since the latter runs with 1/3-speed L2.

(2) c't says they couldn't get a processor to test from AMD, and procured this 700 MHz CPU through "other channels".
Might this be an early engineering sample? Might improvements have been made in the production silicon?

I expect we'll know in... 36 hours or so, but it's fun to speculate. Comments?
