Re: "P4 is being overclocked, and PIII is stalled at 1GHz"

You're wrong about this. An overclocked device is one that is run outside the manufacturers specifications. So as Intel specs the P4 under the conditions being discussed, it can not be overclocked, by definition. The reason most devices will run outside specifications is because of reliability guardbands(hot electrons, electromigration, gate oxide reliability etc). Run the device outside of spec(overclocked) and you risk reliability problems. The P4 is not overclocked. Get over it.
