a celeron processor 2.0ghz with 512 ram will never work the same as a p4 2.6 ghz with 512 ram since the architectural design of the processor is diffirent

No. A Pentium 4 2.0 GHz would run only a little slower (in most cases) than a Celeron 2.6 GHz. But a slower celeron will NOT run anywhere near a faster pentium.
From Wikipedia:
A Celeron is any of a large number of different budget x86 microprocessors produced by Intel and marketed as a budget/value CPU line. The Celeron family complements Intel's higher-performance (and more expensive) Pentium CPU family. Introduced in April 1998, the first Celeron was based on the Pentium II core. Later versions were based on the Pentium III, Pentium 4, and Pentium M. These processors are suitable for most applications, but their performance is somewhat limited when it comes to running intense applications, such as cutting edge games or graphical modeling programs, especially when compared to that of their high-end counterparts.

No, any Celeron is much slower.

No...Celeron is nothing but trouble.
