Default Whats the difference? Celeron and P4....

Keep seeing stuff on ebay and several say "this has a P4 Celeron chip" or says it is Pentium 4 in the spec then in hte text says it is Celeron...

Whats the difference? How do I know what I am bidding on is actually P4????

celeron is a poor man's P4

they probably trying to con people into thinking the celly chip is a real p4 when it aint...

or they just trying to point out that its the new type of celeron (as the modern celerons are MILES different to the original ones!)

surely an Athlon is a suitable compromise to a P4?
