Processor descriptions on Microsoft Windows

by healer . Updated 17 years ago

I have been trying to google to get the generic information without any success for the equivalent plain language Microsoft Windows puts up on the System Information window.

On one of my laptops, it says “Processor x86 Family 6 Model 9 Stepping 5 GenuineIntel ~1498Mhz” I am not too sure what “Family 6”, “Model 9” and “Stepping 5” stand for and what other classifications available?
