Is a "celeron" processor a "PIII" processor?

Yes and no. The original Celeron was based upon the PIII architecture, but since the P4 came out they've been using that instead. So it depends which Celeron you're talking about :)

 

They're certainly not the same as a PIII/P4 though. Although they're built off of the same foundations, Celerons are designed to be a low-budget chip (and hence you don't get all of the features that you'd expect to find on the P3/P4).
