I had a chat with a friend with an overclocked 1.8 Ghz to 2.8 Ghz
Athlon XP. He showed me his Javascript performance numbers and
I compared them to mine. My 2 Ghz A64 beat his in some cases and
he beat mine in other cases. I expected his results to be better
across the board.

I suspect that the A64 has the edge in the one-die memory
controller and maybe floating point processing, even when the
Athlon is running a LOT faster.

I particularly hate dropping the cache size and won't buy
another Celeron. I don't really like the dropping of cache
on the AMD chips but the odmc should help out a little here.

Celeron-E (if any)
I don't think Intel has ever explained the -D thing... but it seems to me since they started calling Banias Pentium-M, M for mobile, the new Celeron-D, is D for desktop...
just a guess, which also means there will not be a "E".
