- Wow, that's pretty cheap. But being a Celeron, it will probably be only a little bit faster than my AMD 64 3500+ 2.2GHz (single-core).

- No, being based on Core 2 Duo, it will eat it for breakfast.

- I doubt it. While it is based on the Core 2 Duo the very limited cache memory hurts performance significantly. At best it may come out about even, but in things like games it will probably be a bit slower. Of course if you don't need a top of the line system you can't beat the price.
