I think you're missing the point, Paul. The Pentium II is called the Pentium II because that's its branding. The processor following the Pentium III is branded as the Pentium 4, not the Pentium IV. I mean, calling it the "Pentium IV" is like referring to the Athlon XP 1800+ as the "Athlon XP 1.53GHz". :P
