P3 socket question

[Sketchy]

My question is, what different slots/sockets are there for the P3? And which speeds fall under which categories? Like socket 370, FC-PGA, etc.

Thanks in advance.

The Pentium III currently uses the FC-PGA....it's a Socket 370 processor: it has 370 pins. Soon there will be a new type called FC-PGA2 for the Tualatin Pentium IIIs. This is also a socket 370 processor, but is incompatible with FC-PGA boards.

Ugh...that's probably confused you more.

The socket itself is called Socket 370. FC-PGA, FC-PGA2 and PPGA (for the original Celerons) are all different forms of processors for Socket 370.
