Z, Re: "wasn't the mobile PII Deschutes and the mobile Celeron Dixon?"

Nope. Deschutes was the desktop PII, and Dixon was the mobile PII.

Z, <Wait, wasn't the mobile PII Deschutes and the mobile Celeron Dixon?>

After Mendocino (the first Celeron w/ on-die L2 cache), Intel loved on-die caches so much that they created a new mobile Pentium II called Dixon. That CPU moved the L2 cache on-die. The original mobile Pentium II was Deschutes, but it had off-chip cache.

By the way, Deschutes was also the code name for desktop Pentium II as well as the first Pentium II Xeon. Just thought I'd confuse you more. ;-)
