in typical marketing behavior, apple is not putting the L2 cache on the
new 733 mhz quick silver models, only on the higher speed models. they
did the same thing when the 733mhz graphite was the fastest. some of
the slower models didn't have the L2 cache. just like the way you could
only get the dvd-r drive on the 733 when they came out, it wasn't even
offered on the slower machines. i must admit this is part of why i got
the 733 mhz. in any case i have verified that the cache could be added,
the processor boards are the same, less the cache on some. i really
hate what marketing people do, they live in a strange and greedy world.
