You DON'T want Celeron, you want full PIII CPU.  The Celeron is cheaper

due to the smaller

L2 cache and other constructs that are bolstered in a full PIII CPU.

I reckon the celeron would be faster than the PIII.

| Dear Ma'ams and Sirs,
|
| The time has come to order a uP upgrade from powerleap.com.
|
| My uP is a 450 MHz PIII, slot-1, 100 MHz FSB.  (Dell Dimension XPS

T-450)

| Powerleap offers a 1.4 GHz Celeron on an adaptor for $150, and a 1.1 GHz
| PIII on an adaptor for $220.
|
| Any recommendations which one will crunch work units faster?  (I also

use

| the computer for everything else.)
|
| Thanks,
|               -Neil-
