[geeks] Intel Xeon Processor

In an earlier thread someone commented how well
the P4 Xeon 1.8GHz processor did with the distributed folding.
I was curious and went to the intel site to find out
more about the Xeon. Although I saw references to
the Pentium 4 and also to the Xeon, I did not see them
expressed as one entity.

I am not very knowledgeable about cpu's so could someone
briefly explain to me if a P4 and Xeon is of
the same "pedigree" and why now they are named separate?
