oh but I do see your point

it just does not scratch the fact that the celeron is overpriced
which is why I so stubbornly argue against your ''celeron is fine''
at my place the duron 1.6 is 41$( surprisingly close to your place)
and the celeron 2.6 is at 94$
xp 2000+ is at 70$
xp 2500+ is at 97$
hopefully you see why I think celeron is far from fine...



by the end of the day we probably still have not convinced each other
gee I wonder why
you are comparing athlon64 3000+ with xp 2500+
and claiming that it is overpriced

while I was comparing with p4 3.0c
and claiming not overpriced

well okay
it is just that one of these overpriced processors are much more overpriced than the other
and I compared them because it was like this


and just to end this
I agree that xp 2500+ is overall the best cpu for the money

but that celeron......*shakes head* even if we are talking about the lowest and lowest of needs........<u></u>...it is still not fine
