Re: "According to specbench.org. the PA-8500 scores a 30.8 on SPECint_95, so I assume that is the number C't is comparing the Athlon's score to."

Not when I look at that page. It says 34.

Re: "Yes, there is no such thing as a 700MHz Athlon w/full speed off die cache, but it paints an awesome picture showing what the Athlon is capable of."
