Brian,

No, there are key differences which make the PII better than the PMMX.

First thing you have to remember is that the entire P6 family of processors are designed for high-speed L2 caches (PPRO, PII, etc.). By taking away the L2 from the Celeron Intel has done the equivalent of trying to run a freight train down a paved road.. it just doesn't work.
