According to what I have read, this chip was designed to actually run
160, but they didn't want it to compete with the more expensive
K5/6x86/P5 chips.  So, they marketed it as the cooler 133 solution
(which is only P66-P75ish speed)..

I don't know what bug crawled in your ass lately, but its really
beginning to be annoying.
