For example, Celeron = (i686_MMX) Celeron 300Mhz = (i686_MMX) Celeron 933Mhz = (i686_MMX/SSE) Celeron 1700Mhz = (i686_SSE2) = (i786) Celeron M = (i686_SSE2) = (i786) Wikipedia was used for most of the conversions, i.e. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Celeron_microprocessors http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Pentium_4_microprocessors http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Xeon_microprocessors I have also post to this thread a more detail list.
