If you think changing the multiplier on chip from 9 to 10 or upping the FSB from 266 to 333 MHz is going to be devastating, then maybe Apple should be warned of doing the same (putting RX1000SC 7455s in MDD 1.25 GHz Power Macs).

Meanwhile Intel's fabs are pumping out nearly identical chips and binning them as lower clocked models just for product differentiation.
