Bill, Re: This Celeron will easily defeat all but the fastest Pentium IIs (400 Mhz up) Go to Intel's WEB and check the official performance figure. Gary

Bill, Re: "This Celeron will easily defeat all but the fastest Pentium IIs (400 Mhz up)" That is wrong. As Gary says, check the benchmarks. Celeron benchmarks: intel.com Click on the highlighted titles, such as SYSmark32 for Windows 95. Pentium II benchmarks: intel.com Click on Performance on the left and then on the highlighted titles, such as SYSmark32 for Windows 95. Pentium II 333 MHz is still in front of Celeron 333 MHz. Of course the spread gets greater when you look at PII 350, 400 and, 450 MHz vs. the Celerons. And, the new Celerons are a good 28 to 48% faster than the old Celerons, depending on clock frequency and what you run. The bar graphs tell the story. Look at them. I wonder where AMD's performance numbers will fall in? Tony
