This is what
pattern dictated the
Pentium Pro,
Pentium II, and
Pentium III should have been called.
Intel didn't want to sell a
product and have people think it was some sort of
sex toy, so they
added shit to their
existing Pentium brand name.
So, all you
folks reading there at
home, your
processor is not a
Pentium III, it is in fact a
Sextium.
It doesn't matter though, because the
x86 technology stopped really
improving at the
Pentium anyway. All
Intel and
AMD really do these days is try to
figure out how to
emulate a
486 faster.
