> Is Mandrake 9.0 meant to run slow on celerons? Yes, it's all a conspirecy to get you to buy Pentium chips. It was thought up by the same people that make wide screen DVDs so that you will buy wide screen TVs :-). Seriously though what exactly is slow about it? Maybe you should consider trying a light weight WM/desktop environment. I like XFCE, Window Maker, IceWM and Enlightenment.
