<re:Celeron 300A and 333 price cuts. Its obvious to me that Intel is clearing out their inventory of 300's and 333's. By selling only 366's and 400's in January, they will put an end to overclocking using the 100 MHz bus. No celeron will run at 550 or 600 MHz.>

Petz, I agree. You should see all the posts on the gamer message boards re: clocklocking. It will be interesting to see whether AMD follows with similar action. From reading many of those boards myself.....it would appear that the Celeron chips (especially the 300a) are much more overclockable than the k6-2's. I would argue that this actually plays in AMD's favor either way: AMD has less to loose whether they clocklock or not.
