Hi
The performance is on par with athlon xp 2000 in everyday use, very stable (even on win98 sec edition) , very cool compare to the athlon xp 2000 + the processor temprature hovers around 38-40 degree centigrade on stock cooler after extended use of 4-6 hours straight in a room temprature of 34 degree centigrades,
DONT expect it to be fast enough to compete head to head with ATHLON XP 2000 in gaming it will be around 20-25 percent slower thanks to the 100 mhz bus of duron and 64kb l3 cache compare to 133 bus athlon xp and 256 kb l3 cache .
I can assure you that no celeron can catch it in 3dmark and gaming performance when pared with same graphics card and same amount of memory. even the 2.8ghz, i had compare them head to head
