... they all come out just fine and then they just label some as lower speed. That's what led to the over-clocking movement that got rolling back in the early days. Well, that and better cooling fans.
I recall that when I worked for a large computer manufacturer in the mid-frame days (pre PC mostly), they only had one processor that ran at the highest speed... so they built in software "no ops" to slow them down and sold them for less money to customers who didn't want to pay for the fastest speed. It made no financial sense to produce the chips at lower speeds (same material cost) so they artificially created a slower product to sell.
