What is this supposed to mean ? It either has L2 cache fitted or
not. Write-back is nothing to do with type of cache, but if the
cache-controller chipset supports write-back caching.
Also 70 seem expensive for 256k of SRAM, I would have thought
closer to 30 pounds, unless it is refering to PB cache which
is supported by some pentium boards.
