tench, re:

The only concern is the real possibility that Celeron will displace Pentium III sales. So
far, I haven't seen anything which would suggest that Pentium III sales have dwindled.

I can give you 1 sample point based on anectodal evidence I've seen at the Microcenter here in Boston. The PIII systems are usually packaged with some nice "goodies": much more memory, better video cards, Zip drives, bigger hard disks, etc. than Celeron systems. This is a big selling point. Consumers are willing to pay the extra $500 or so as a result. That's what the sales guys told me. They said PIIIs sales are good there.
