Pentium III was a grade above to processors like Pentium 2 which had two different versions. The higher end version was called as Xeon and the lower end version was called as Celeron. Pentium III had several different cores which had their own core specifications like 1.1 Katmai, 1.2 copper mine, 1.3 was copper mine-T, 1.4 was Tualatin.
