Gary, Re: "Yes I know that. But a Celeron 266 can also be overclocked
to perform like a PII 300 or K6-2 300. Why didn't Celeron
sell like hot cakes ?"

Because the use of overclocking is an extremely small percentage trick done by hobbyists and tinkerers. Analogy: I knew a guy once that put 450 horsepower Chevy engines into Porsche 914's. A customer of his floored his modified 914 for a bit too long and the engine tore itself loose from its mountings. Off into the redwoods, tra la.
