The following SPEC CPU2000 results list a Jul-2000 hardware availability date for the Intel VC820 with 1.13 GHz Pentium III:

http://www.spec.org/cpu2000/results/res2000q3/cpu2000-20000801-00173.html

The Jul-2000 date at the SPEC web site agrees with at least one Intel Corporation web page, which as of the date of this writing (12-Dec-2000) lists availability as July 31, 2000:
http://www.intel.com/pressroom/archive/releases/dp073100.htm

But the SPEC web site disagrees with a different published Intel Corporation web page, which as of the date of this writing (12-Dec-2000) lists availability as "Q2 '01":
http://www.intel.com/PentiumIII/index.htm?iid=prodinfo2+procp3p&

SPEC makes no judgment regarding the above disagreement in dates. As described in the article Regarding Availability Dates Listed in CPU2000 Results, there can be variety of reasons for differences in published dates. In case of any question regarding product availability, the reader should always contact the vendor directly for clarification.
