The old old Celeron 266 and 300 were garbage, that
is old news.

The Celeron 300A, 333, newly introduced 400, are kick-butt
chips, better than what AMD has to offer, better than
their best offerings.

To go off into a tangent, you can overclock the 300A
to 450Mhz with ease, everyone and their mother is doing this
and since the Celeron cache memory (128k) runs at CPU speed
(450Mhz), it actually outscores the Pentium II - 450Mhz.

For servers, the 512k cache size is preferred on the P2, but
the P2's cache only runs at 1/2 the processor speed. Intel
actually did something right, they made a good chip, better
than the P2, BUT they don't want people to know because I can
go buy a Celeron 300A for $80 bucks and run at 450Mhz
vs. spending $550 bucks for a P2-450Mhz, hee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Believe me, everyone is doing it! link here!
