Hmm... you just got a Thorton.
It has the same specs as the Barton BESIDES the L2 cache.

BTW you can unlock the cache... but it may habe catastrophic effects.

What nimrod said, plus use graphite (2B pencils).
However, the K7 architecture isn't really that cache dependant... the Throton would perform like a 2400+ or so... nothing really big.
