Gary, >>>"Do you call Celeron 333 'Celeron A' ?<<<

No. There is only one Celeron 333 MHz chip, so it need no distinguishing letter in the name. As Steve said, about the Celeron 300 MHz situation: There is a Celeron A. The Celeron 300A.. (you know the 300Mhz
version with the integrated cache that had to be distinguished form
the plain Jane 300)

Gary,

Actually I do call the 300A and the 333 Celeron A in casual conversation. And Intel would do well to use a seperate name (Celeron II maybe)... becasue the Celeron (original w/o cache) got slammed so hard by the industry.

BTW: 300A is almost as bad as a PR rating IMHO ;-).. it's mixing numbers and letters... too much for me to understand <ggg> (tm Yousef)
