P4 vs Xeon

[Guest]

I know this will probably sound stupid but can someone tell me the real difference between a Pentium 4 and a Xeon Processor... I haven't seen any good benchmarks or comparisons that would sway me one way or the other.

There is no difference in speed. The Xeons have more pins and a slightly different FSB in order to support n-way processing.

And Xeons support multi-procs. The P4 doesn't. Xeons are for servers.
