Thanks for bringing me up to date on the Celeron. 
Can you tell me what the intrinsic differences are between the Celeron and 
other microprocessors. I assumed that because the Celeron is used on cheaper 
computers that it hadn't been changed.

  The original Celeron (2-3 years ago) had no L2 
  cache, but 2nd generation and above do have an integrated L2 
  cache.

    You are correct about the Celeron it has no 
    cache. As a general rule, when I buy a new computer, I want the hardware not 
    to be integrated.  Its cheaper and easier to make changes and 
    repairs.

      two cents is don&#8217;t purchase a computer with an integrated graphics card, 
      especially with 4mb ram.  
      That&#8217;s like buying a car with a governor that keeps it below 
      45mph.  The Cache is different 
      from the Ram memory.  It 
      resides near the processor and offloads tasks to free up the processor and 
      allows faster throughput.  
      256K is what comes with a Celeron chip and the Pentium usually has 
      512K.  Don&#8217;t torture yourself 
      with that computer.  Just my 
      opinion.  Dave

      am looking at new computer  and also thinking of buying a good 
      charting program. Dell told me  this new computer I am 
      thinking of purchasing has a graphic card that is 'integrated', 
      meaning unremovable, and also 4mb ram only.   He suggested I 
      check first to see if it may not be strong enough for my intended 
      charting software program. He also mentioned the cache is 
      256mb , and I read a good charting program needs to work on 512mb 
      cache.    I am thinking of putting 256x2 mb ram onto 
      this new computer.       Is Cache & 
      Ram 2 different kinds of memories?  I thought I know I lot, but 
      now I really think I know nothing...:-( TYIA for any guidances.... 
      Have a nice weekend, all of you :-)<FONT
