Hi All,

I'm trying to understand the Intel naming convention.

It seems to be broken into Family,Model and Step, so when looking at
System Properties in w2k you get something like this:

x86 Family 6 Model 8 Stepping 3

Does anyone have a simple explanation?

This question has absolutely nothing to do with Linux, so it's off-topic in this newsgroup. You'll probably get a better answer in one of the Intel-specific hardware groups (such as comp.sys.intel).
