Dave, From the consumers perspective maybe a good comparison would be the 486SX and the 486DX. Did this hurt consumers perception of Intel? Without the FPU, the performance of 486SX is not degraded from the same core speed of 486DX. Very few applications use FPU anyway. A better comparison of Celeron vs PII is 386SX vs 386DX. With 16-bit data bus, the performance degrade from 386DX to 386SX is terrible just the same way as the change from PII to the cacheless Celeron. The existence of Celeron just proved to the world the incompetence of Intel engineers who are uncapable to modify the stolen technology from Alpha.
