the Prescott Celerons will be slower than you think.
Double the cache and a faster front side bus... they'll be faster than the old Celerons. At any rate, a 2.93GHz Celeron ought to be able to perform as well as a 1.5GHz Celeron M. The difference in clock frequency is nearly 2x. Rather, it's not as slow as you think.
Re: Based on your 2nd statment, you can't compare 3xx to 7xx either, so let's CORRECT the first statement to say, "One third of the numbers seem pretty close to me."
You're mincing words and missing the point, as usual.
