between those two pentium
celeron r shit, p4 r gud, dont no n e detials though cantt b bothered lukin!
if ur gettin a laptop i herd the centrino cpu's r gud.
the differnce between the two is the amount of L2 cache
the think celeron is 128, and pentium 512
other than that they are exactly the same besides the price.
Think of it like this... a Celeron is like a factory second of a Pentium Pro CPU.
Intel make a bunch of CPUs.. those that don't measure up to quality control, (but still work okay.. just a bit slower than they should) get called Celerons.
...thats what I was told when I asked an IT buddy anyways..
buy an amd, barton to be exact, much cheaper than pentium
you make it sound like a celeron is a factory reject... they are made to be what they are.Quote:

they are just slightly slower, and a lot cheaper. if we were talking about a desktop with a good graphics card it could be just as good or better than a regular pentium pc.
celeron is just a bargain priced p4, you get what you pay for though
Okay Thanks for the help guys.
I'll go with the Pentium I think.
Good choice, Celeron's are by far outdated, they only have 256KB Level 1 (:unsure:) cache and they can't match the performance of Pentium 4s/Xeons. And their FSB frequency isn't that high at all ...
Yeah i got a celeron at 566 Mhz...ive messed with some stuff and upgraded alot as you can see...but the PC100 ram sux...newayz yeah not enough L2 Cache...which is like RAM but a lot faster

It's all about the Pentiums, baby
Uhh, uh-huh, yeah
Uhh, uh-huh, yeah

Yeah
What y'all wanna do?
Wanna be hackers? Code crackers? Slackers
Wastin' time with all the chatroom yakkers?
9 to 5, chillin' at Hewlett Packard?
Workin' at a desk with a dumb little placard?
Yeah, payin' the bills with my mad programming skills
Defraggin' my hard drive for thrills
I got me a hundred gigabytes of RAM
I never feed trolls and I don't read spam
Installed a T1 line in my house
Always at my PC, double-clickin' on my mizouse
Upgrade my system at least twice a day
I'm strictly plug-and-play, I ain't afraid of Y2K
I'm down with Bill Gates, I call him "Money" for short
I phone him up at home and I make him do my tech support
It's all about the Pentiums, what?
You've gotta be the dumbest newbie I've ever seen
You've got white-out all over your screen
You think your Commodore 64 is really neato
What kinda chip you got in there, a Dorito?
You're usin' a 286? Don't make me laugh
Your Windows boots up in what, a day and a half?
You could back up your whole hard drive on a floppy diskette
You're the biggest joke on the Internet
Your database is a disaster
You're waxin' your modem, tryin' to make it go faster
Hey fella, I bet you're still livin' in your parents' cellar
Downloadin' pictures of Sarah Michelle Gellar
And postin' "Me too!" like some brain-dead AOL-er
I should do the world a favor and cap you like Old Yeller
You're just about as useless as jpegs to Hellen Keller

Now, what y'all wanna do?
Wanna be hackers? Code crackers? Slackers
Wastin' time with all the chatroom yakkers?
9 to 5, chillin' at Hewlett Packard?
Uh, uh, loggin' in now
Wanna run wit my crew, hah?
Rule cyberspace and crunch numbers like I do?
They call me the king of the spreadsheets
Got 'em printed out on my bedsheets
My new computer's got the clocks, it rocks
But it was obsolete before I opened the box
You say you've had your desktop for over a week?
Throw that junk away, man, it's an antique
Your laptop is a month old? Well that's great
If you could use a nice, heavy paperweight
My digital media is write-protected
Every file inspected, no viruses detected
I beta tested every operation system
Gave props to some, and others? I dissed 'em
While your computer's crashin', mine's multitaskin'
It does all my work without me even askin'
Got a flat-screen monitor forty inches wide wide
I believe that your says "Etch-A-Sketch" on the side
In a 32-bit world, you're a 2-bit user
You've got your own newsgroup, "alt.total-loser"
Your motherboard melts when you try to send a fax
Where'd you get your CPU, in a box of Cracker Jacks?
Play me online? Well, you know that I'll beat you
If I ever meet you I'll control-alt-delete you
What? What? What? What? What?
