Not surpised. Procssor companies have a long history of taking a chip that something failed on, remarking it and selling it as a lower version.
Intel started this trend when they came out with the 386SX/DX CPU's... the SX was a DX that the Math-Coprocessor failed on, but everything else worked perfectly. They simply disabled the Math-Co and sold it a little cheapr. They thereby thurned a 100% profit loss into some profit.
