There is no such thing as a Pentium IV Xeon, the Pentium name got dropped after the P3 based Xeons.

If you want dates just google.

I recently acquired 7 pentium 2 chips (only 2 mobo's though), and an old dell server (poweredge 6300) with 4 p2xeons (400mhz each), im probably gonna give it all to a local charity (they give away/sell dirt cheap old 'internet capable' pc's), unless anyone has a better idea...

My uncle could do with some for his band to do research on. And I could probably find a use for the others.
