Thanks for responding, I'm interested in the Celeron because it is a cheap
alternative.  I realize it has not L2 cache, but through overclocking I
understand you can drive the processer at close to p2 350 performance.  If
this is the case(I know people who are doing it), I thought I'ld save a
few bucks.  Any thoughts.
