Intel has asked that no benchmarks be published by people with units.

One wonders why they distributed them in the first place if they didn't intend to excite people about their performance prior to releasing them.

They are exciting people. I can tell you its fast. I just can't tell you how fast.

Its actually pretty good marketing.

With processors I don't think it's for "debugging" or stability checks since that should be well simulated (owing to the high cost of CPU molds costs millions itself).

Its for (IMO) grass-roots word of mouth marketing. They want the buzz to be there. And it is.
