What is the difference between B chips?

I've seen an Intel 2.4GHz and an Intel 2.4GHz B (both same price) but whats the difference???

2.4B BUS: 533MHz
2.4 BUS: 400MHz
2.4 W/ht BUS: 800MHz

Does that therefore mean that a chip with an 800Mhz Bus won't work on a Mobo with a 533Mhz Bus?

If you only have a 533 bus than i would get the 2.4b. No sense to spend the extra money and have it still only be 533..

Whats interesting is that there is no price difference.

The 533 and the 400 are about the same... $162 - retail
But seeing as the 800 is hyper threading its about $60 more.
