celeron/Pentium/AMD

I used to know the difference between a Celeron and a regular Pentium. But
with the many CPUs out there today, I am now confused.

What exactly do you give up when you purchase a Celeron notebook vs. a
Pentium notebook? Is it built-in cache? I assume in the real world it comes
down to less speed, but how significant is this loss of speed? Do AMD chips
also have Celeron type equivalents?

Is there a website that explains the difference in today's notebook cpu's?
