What is the difference in cpu stepping especially for the mobile cpu?

I have a mobile 2600 and stepping AQYHA

and some people have IQYHA and say it's better

what are the differences in these steppings?

I have read that the AQYHA will do almost 2.6

while the IQYHA will do more like 2.7-2.8

or I should ask what is the stepping of a cpu???? does it have to do with the multiplier?
