 I have a friend who says that he has a Celeron on a 112 MHz bus with 8 ns
 memory and clocked at 400 MHz.  Says he can hold his finger on the
 processor chip it is so cool. He claims to have upgraded for about $ 300
 total. I personally have not seen it yet.

 Any other experimenters out there having similar success with souped up

Hi,
  For more info on the Celeron's performance (especially the new one with the
onboard 128K cache), check out www.tomshardware.com   (Hint: the new Celeron
with onboard cache keeps up with a P-II running at the same clock frequencies,
and is as overclocking friendly as the original Celeron. It also costs about
one third of what a P-II 400-450 costs.)

My .02 worth,
Peter Hogan
