Are the new AMD Athlon Revision "B" CPU Core Chips being manufactured for the AMD Athlon 1700 and 1800 CPUs, or are these two CPU Chips in the first group of Athlons to contain the Revision "B" Chips Cores?

Do the AMD Athlon CPUs that are greater than 2000 already have the Revision "B" CPU Core?

Are the AMD Athlon 2700 and 2800 already the Revision "B" CPU Chips?

Yes. But don't buy a 1700+ or 1800+ expecting one with the B core yet. Make sure you get confirmation from the vendor that it is in fact revision B.

Do the AMD Athlon CPUs that are greater than 2000 already have the Revision "B" CPU Core?
Any AMD XP processor with a 2200 or below XP rating is not garaunteed to be Revision "B".

Are the AMD Athlon 2700 and 2800 already the Revision "B" CPU Chips?
Yes. 2400+ has also always been revision B.
