The celerons are all drawn from fast stock and will run at 100 Mhz FSB, see toms hardware at tomshardware.com If they can do the same trick the the mendocino it will be interesting as many will buy celerons and run them fast. I suspect intel will move to block this pathway soon on all celerons. Bill

Man, <Ali Babble, Re -- Celery replacing the higher-margin P-II in the marketplace.. Where did you get that>? Maybe you are living in an inmate cage or hospital. I just go shopping and can see what's going on in stores. That easy, StockMoron... <You will notice that the Celery are speed grades (and bus grades) below the pentiumII. > Who cares about speed grades and FSB frequencies in particular? Even humorist Elmer had difficulty finding these specifications on the reputable IBM web site. On the shelves, the CeleronPC carry all the same signs of "Intel inside". So, as you and other IntelMorons told us many times, public cares only about the brand name, isn't it? Is it hard to understand for you that the market for "computer enthusiasts" and loyal cretins is saturated, no grows, understand? The only grows is in the budget-limited category, where K6 fits the best, and the Celery putting their sticks into K6 wheels. <Only some idiots such as you are fooled by it.> Was is Grove who said something like "Never overestimate the intelligence of average Americans"?
