Wait... A Celeron is *worse* than a Pentium III? That can't be right...

  Which Celeron? The first Celeron was based on the Pentium II, and was
a crippled version of it. All subsequent Intel processors have had a
Celeron version of them.

Mmm, interesting. I'm aware that a Celeron is a crippled version of a 
normal processor, but I thought they didn't launch it until long after 
the Pentium IV. [And, if that were so, there would obviously be no 
reason for it to be interior to the P3.]
