>>Is it 3 times as fast as a 500 MHz Celeron PC which costs 1/3 as much ?

i just bought a hp8560c. i decided to use it to fill the gap until cumine & rambus stabilize and come down in price. it's a nice computer for $799.

The HP Pavilion 8560C multimedia PC with Celeron 500MHz processor, 96MB SDRAM, 12.7GB hard drive, internal HP CD-Writer Plus, HP 10/100 BaseT LAN Adapter, 56Kbps fax/data modem with V.90 technology, Polk Audio stereo speakers and a one-touch multimedia keyboard is expected to be available for an estimated U.S. street price of $1,0991

i have a couple of questions:

does the celeron have a pII core?

the data sheet says it uses pc100 memory but i thought the celeron has a 66 mhz memory bus. do i need to use pc100 ram when i upgrade the memory?

the one bummer is that there are no free interrupts for the second ethernet card i plan to add. i guess i have to use comm4's interrupt.
