	Pretty much the same here. I have never understood the idea of
buying a slower CPU to save $20 and then spending $200 on cooling to
overclock it back to the processor you decided not to buy. On the other
hand, if you have it laying around and it takes no special effort except
setting the jumpers then go for it. From what I understand this particualr
celeron was the one real exception to the overclocker rule. It was easy to
overclock and worked well at it stock. Pretty much what started the whole
overclock craze really.
