Celeron? A name proves that the incompetent dancing scientists were not capable to modify the stolen technology from Alpha Technology for better performance. A chip for the uninformed poor victim. A splendid name to rename an inferior product to cheat the public without hurting the original brand name. A product to ensure the buyers would get less quality if they choose to pay less.

Time Traveller, it is a great shame on you to recommend a Slot 1 system with a motherboard which is about to be obsolete! Slot 1 has its days numbered. Slot 2 will be here soon. I'll wait for the Merced. The longer INTC delays the better off it will be since I am not ready to upgrade to Merced yet.

Re: "Socket-7 has its days numbered."

You're right. As we all know, Slot A is the future.
