Jim, Re: For any buyer with half a brain...the PENTIUM II is FINISHED

Have I told you that I 'expected' you to say something
like that when I looked at the 'red bar' on Tom's site ?

Jim, The Celeron A is the
equal and slighter faster than the Pentium II when overclocked to over 400Mhz."

Why are you comparing Pentium II's at "normal" speeds with Celerons that are (way) overclocked, both re processor clock and system bus? Pentium II's could be overclocked too, you know, in which case they are faster again than Celeron. BTW, overclocking is nothing but an invitation to ELF (early life failure) at worst, or unreliable operation at best. That is, unless you get one that is "underbinned" just for the sake of keeping enough quantity of all clock speeds available.

It seems like your posts have gone off the deep end recently, resembling those of an alarmist, going from one extreme to the other about Intel vs. AMD vs. themselves. Trying to stir the pot by creating a lot of FUD is what it looks like to me.
