Cirruslvr - <Yes, Celeron does sound like a lame name. Pretty weird considering the name comes from "celeres" and celerity, both of which sound more swift! ;)>

I disagree, now. I thought the name sounded weird and dumb at first. But over time it has started to sound better, and even "appropriate".

You are, however, in good company. Barrett has been quoted recently as saying he doesn't like the name either. :-)).
