    Since it's inception, the u330 displayed a processor of p7350 with 2Ghz, 1066 bus, and 3 MB. Now on the website, it seems there is a downgrade as it is now showing a p7350 with 2Ghz, 667 bus, and 1 MB cache. Does anybody know what's going on? For people who already ordered (like me), isn't this basically bait and switch. If the bus is really 667, then doesn't it make the DDR3 8500 ram moot?

    This is a pretty sneaky change.

    I believe Lenovo is known for listing incorrect specs, anyway.
