If you mean P3 Xeon processors, yes, Intel does make them.

However, they won't fit into normal PIII mountings. A regular Pentium III would fit into a Socket 370 or a Slot 1 connector. However, a P3 Xeon requires a Slot 2 connector. These can be found on very, very, very few motherboards, which are pretty tough to find nowadays.

Grat's got it.

Although for the recent Xeon's you'll need like a Socket 602(I think) motherboard which I haven't even seen before LOL.

I use a ASUS XG-DLS Dual Xeon MB for Slot 2 in my server bought at ebay for ~110 €. Try to look for the manual at http://www.asus.com.tw/download/manual/mb-man-other.htm
