should be even better.

If you get Abit's latest, the BE-6 and get good PC-100 or PC-133 memory
(expensive these days) you should be able to overclock it to 600+.

no.. there's no way you'll be able to overclock it to 600.  The best
motherboard is a Soyo 6BA+III.
It has some extra FSB speeds that the ABIT doesn't have.  I originally was
running my Celeron 500 on a ABIT BH6 overclocked to 563MHz... then I read
about the Soyo 6BA+III and now I can overclock it to around 585MHz.
To reach 600... you just have to be lucky enough to find a very well made
CPU.. and only a Soyo motherboard will let you use 81 fsb speed.
Don't get PC-133.  There's no way you are going to reach 100fsb so PC-100
memory isn't really needed either.  But nonetheless, you'll want to replace
your Celeron.. so if you get PC-133 memory, you are guaranteed to keep it
longer than your CPU most likely.
