Foad,
That's basically old news but interesting none the less.
I love this part...
RE:"Indeed, the new Celerons are so fast that, based on CPU
performance alone, the Celeron now is only 10 percent slower
than a Pentium II clocking at the same frequency and in the
same system configuration, according to Sean Maloney,
corporate vice president and director of Intel's sales and
marketing group."

I wonder if Seans nose grows everytime he opens his mouth?
All tests I see show the Celeron A is as fast or faster than the Pentium II at the same clock speed. Of course Intel doesn't want you to know this...they call it market segmentation.
