The point of my original post rookie was that a Celeron with a T+L graphics card will beat a PIII and probably cost less.

What is your answer to that oh objective one?

Your point boils down to:
Celeron + non-existent T+L graphics card > PIII

So what?

How about this:
PIII + T+L graphics card > Celeron + T+L graphics card

Neither is terribly meaningful. What if the first generation of T+L accelerators suck? What if they're too expensive? What if games are being written to APIs that don't take advantage of hardware T+L acceleration? Etc, etc.
