I said: "see also the final section".

"I am fairly satisfied with my beta program `cpuburn` (`burnP6`) users.ev1.net. I measure about 88% of the datasheet power draw through an inductive pickup."

You apparently think that people are all stupid
as opposed to Intel employees. "apparently TDP"!
Not.

And exactly what is the application I suppose to
run to have the "typical" power, can you tell me
please? If I want to verify that whether my thermal
design is adequate to TDP or not?

"I have not had the time to actually run the app &
measure the current draw" - then I suggest you go
and do so.

In case you didn't know, that kind of freaking
marketing games with understating actual power
consumption and not defining as what is "typical"
power has costed dearly to many boxmakers with those
unprotected P-III. In case you don't know, there
are things like aging and other variations in
thermal interfaces, poor heat sinks, etc, or other
cases when, say, Dell machines
arrived with heat sink fallen off the CPU.
Now Intel got smarter and built
in the unconditional hardware thermal protection.

The only result of your "TDP" is that some morons
think that they have bragging rights, see example:
