That is not true as the current series of processors (Woodcrest and
the like) are also called Xeon. You probably mean the Pentium IV era
Xeons.
Well, the newer ones can address large amounts of memory directly,
without using PAE, but the original comment was correct--PAE is slow
regardless of what processor implements it.
