> 1.133GHz is only 1 notch above 1GHz

I do not mean to exacerbate this discussion, but for the 133MHz bus PIII, a notch has traditionally been 66MHz (it's gone 533, 600, 667, 733, 800, 866, 933, 1000). You may also remember that the limited availability 1000 was introduced before the 933 was released. So it is not stupid at all for somebody to argue that 1133MHz is two notches above 1GHz and that Intel may fill the gap at one point with a 1066MHz PIII (I hope they don't, as I like Intel's recent training of the market to accept hundred MHz leaps between speed grades).
