The Celeron is 66MHz and the P-III Xeon is at least 100MHz. If it is 133MHz, then the memory processing is twice as fast clock to clock for the Xeon. Dual Celeron's won't out handle a a single Xeon with 133Mhz FSB. Adding a dual processor classically adds 1.8 but when the single cpu starts out 2x up, you can't catch it. The Xeon cache is on-board like the Celeron but it has a LOT more. The Xeon is designed to be a server and the Celeron is built for eClass systems :). Now a Thunderbird, on the other hand, with a 200MHz FSB could be even better. Especially when the get PC-266 memory for it.
