Following the announcement about the change of the core stepping of Pentium III-S, Pentium III-M and 0.13micron Mobile Celeron processors, the same announcement has been made regarding the other 0.13micron CPUs: desktop Celeron and Pentium III. Of course, the changes are absolutely the same ("errata" correction, new CPUID (0x06B4), Brand ID index and Brand String changes), because the core is the same (Tualatin-512 and its cut-down Tualatin-256 version). What is different, it?s the dates: the first samples of desktop Celeron and Pentium III processors with the new B1 core stepping will appear in the first half of June, and their mass shipments are scheduled to begin on July 22.
