<..that they can actually work with that low a Tj is a testimony to the low power dissipation of the PIII>

Not necessary.
Tj is a function of power dissipation _AND_ size of
heat sink. Any power can be countered with bigger
and better heat sink. That is what P-III systems do
to survive. See example, from an optimist:
Message 14917027

BTW, I found it interesting that all P-III stepping
cC0, starting even from 550MHz, have Vcc of 1.70V.
I guess our Intel's reliability experts like Elmer,
Paul and Tony, have full explanation for this.
