Err, were there ever 400mhz celeron boards released?  I keep seeing
people mention 400mhz celeron in conjunction with SunPCI Is, and I'm now
having a sinking sensation that I may have really bought a AMD k6-2
instead of the Celeron 400 I though I was getting.  Then again, I guess
it doesn't really make all that much difference.  Both will probably be
slower than I really like for my task (but I didn't have the budget for
faster).
