Intel Investors - Pentium III Support - Windows 2000 (NT 5) is being written to support some of the Katmai New Instructions, in particular a fast save and restore of the Floating Point Registers when implementing context switches - that is, changing from one task/program to a second one.

Additional Pentium III details - as well as full blown photos - can be found at:

"NT 5 Beta 2 enables the use of KNI, and uses FXSAVE/FXRSTOR to do context switches. "
