Joey,

Is that version of Celery comes with peanut butter or without?

I don't know, but i bet it will take away share form AMD/Cyrix in the sub $1k market...

Have you thought of the possibility that the low priced and inferior Celeron 266Mhz would steal the market on the expensive Pentium II market from Intel?

After all, these people, preferring Intel processors, are not capable to judge or select hardware correctly for themselves and would take Celeron as a better product than PII since Celeron is newer and have 266Mhz too! Thus, they might choose Celeron over PII when they decide 266Mhz is fast enough. On this run, Intel would shoot its own toe.

After these innocents buy these inferior systems back, they might find their systems are extremely slow to run M$ Office or Nescape. A few months later, they would find their systems ridiculously slow when comparing to their friends' K6 or M2, and become aware that they have been ripped off by Intel. They won't buy any Intel Inside systems any longer, and would tell everyone who would listen to stay from Intel systems. On this second run, Intel shoot its own head.

I have being holding my breath for the PII-sx debut on April 15th. Ready for the crashes on 4/13 and 4/15? Better fasten your seatbelt tight! It's going to be rough.
