So where's your proof? I have a 760EL and the IBM
manual that says they don't!

I was just trying to set the record straight since
there is some false information going around. I don't
believe there are any 760EL models with cache since
they were designed to be inexpensive. Can anyone
produce one?
 
I don't care if you disagree with the IBM manual, take
it up with them!
