Why do you say Celerons suck? In side by side comparisons, the end user can
only tell a difference between Celeron and Pentium II/III machines in FPU
intensive applications. And even then, the difference is not extreme. MP3
decoding is more dependent on the decoder you use than it is in your
processor. And, of course, if you are trying to do multiple thigs at the
same time, then you will notice the machine bogging with even the fastest
processor.
