sempron kinda = celron

Athlons and Athlon 64 are more comparable to P4
AMD chips process more instructions per clock cycle so a lesser Mhz AMD is equal to a higher Mhz Pentium.

As far as surfing the web and ebay goes, it's fine. Make sure you have enough RAM and decent video card or enough RAM for shared video and system.
