eeeh, after 533, starting with the celeron A intel basically succeeded in breaking smp on celerons. And they also switched to using borked p3's for celerons ( 256k cache vs 128k ) if the rumors are true :).
There were some ppl doing realy nasty voltage mods but nothing conclusive ever came of that. The last thing I heard was that asus succeeded in making a dual p4, but I dont expect much from that corner.
So you're stuck with p3 or xeon, going the amd route might be smarter if you want something affordable.
