It's true.
Dual Celery (sorry) Celerons run like a dream.
I run a Tyan Tiger 100 Motherboard, and 2x MSI Slot1 to Socket 370
converters, and 2x Celeron 466 CPUs.
The reason for this strange config will become clear.
Tyan, because they are the best motherboards I have ever tried (and the
manuals are in english, which is a bonus).
The MSI risers, because they allow you to use Celerons on Slot1
motherboards, and the have voltage and Dual CPU Jumpers.
The upshot of this is, that the Tyan motherboard is tuneable and runs in
excess of 100mhz FSB speed, instead of a Celeron Mobo's 66mhz.
My Kit;
Tyan Tiger 100
256Mb Ram (PC100)
MSI Riser cards, Dual CPU and 100mhz enabled (set to 2.2v)
2x Intel Celeron 466 CPUs, overclocked on the bus to 112mhz
2x Net'n'Dude High dissapation Heatsinks each with dual 5cm Fans.
Linux reports 1,584 BogoMips!!
WARNING, BE PREPARED TO SPEND SOME MONEY ON SOME HEAVY DUTY CPU COOLING!!
I BLEW 2 CELERONS BEFORE I GOT MY FANS AND HEATSINKS.
