depends what you mean by faster, the 2.13 GHz is 'faster' because it does more calculations a second, however i have a feeling thats not quite what you meant with the question.
for bench marks look at this website it should have the two processors your looking at http://tomshardware.co.uk/2003/02/17/benchmark_marathon/index.html
The celeron is much faster, not only in terms of speed, but also because it uses the P-IV core and not the old P-III.

It looks like it will be close - a Celeron 2.4 Northwood is a little better than a PIII 1.2 Tualatin http://www.tomshardware.com/2004/12/21/the_mother_of_all_cpu_charts_part_2/page14.html, and if this Celeron 2.13 is a Celeron D 310, it will be about 10 - 25% better than the same speed Celeron Northwood http://www.anandtech.com/printarticle.aspx?i=2093. I would say a Celeron D 310 will outperform the PIII 1.2.
