Okay, here's a processor question of my own. Original plans for my new computer were to buy a 2.7 GHz Celeron chip with a 400 MHz FSB and 128k cache. But upon browsing, I discovered this chip called a Celeron D. A 2.66 GHz Celeron D has a 533 MHz FSB and a 256k cache, and is a bit cheaper than the 2.7 GHz Celeron. This seems like a pretty good deal on the surface, but not actually knowing the difference between a Celeron and a Celeron D, I thought I'd inquire...

Celeron-Ds have Prescott cores. Celeron-nils do not.

Realistically though, you're not going to notice any sort of difference whatsoever between the two. So get whatever one is cheapest.

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.
