As I said earlier, some applications really benefit from the extra
(full-speed) cache. And the 'Pentium' name sells better than the 'Celeron'.
That said, and all that's been said in this thread, notwithstanding, I'd

I'd probably buy teh celery as well, but that's because the price differential is huge!
You could nearly build half another machine on the difference - and that would be quicker :)

However on a CPU to CPU comparison I would guess that the PIII would top it with pre 3.03 clients, not sure with 3.03... (Cache dependency changed considerably IIRC)
