[b]Intel[/b] reportedly plans to assign a new numbering system to its [i]Pentium[/i] and [i]Celeron[/i] processors in order to better illustrate their performance to consumers, according to a source familiar with the company's plans.
[blockquote]The chip giant is expected to begin the practice with the launch of its latest Pentium M processor, dubbed Dothan, which is due in the second quarter. Pentium 4 and Celeron chips will also get model numbers, as Intel aims to get the system in place by summer, the source said.
Under the model number system, processors will be given numbers to describe their performance, in addition to being described as running at 2GHz or another speed.[/blockquote]
