Re: "Group one finds out that the two CPUs are the exact same, just marked as 266 or 300. Note this refers to the exact same die, made on same line at same time tested to same specs, but marked differently. Intel had excess stock of unsold 300 and there was low end demand and their line was tuned to make high speed parts and did so. They would have to make special batches of slow parts to fill slow orders as their normal bin mix made too few high speed parts, they did not do this as the real task is faster better. "

Exactly the same? How do they know? Do they have a multimillion dollar tester and a test program as exhustive as Intels? They'd better if they're going to prove their claim.

Your synerio is seriously flawed as you have no means of showing there is no difference between the 2 parts. How are you going to prove this?
