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 [1.4]celeron would be faster than the [1.1]PIII.

Celerons used to be alot slower than PIIIs, AFAIK that hasn't changed - they simply can't hold enough data in their caches to process full time.  It's why they are cheap...
