Re: TI-H: OT: The Ad I saw




If you have seen tests you will see that the Celeron is a pretty close match
to a PII. Pretty good for what is suppose to be a disabled PII. The PII is
overpriced and as said in an earlier post, being phased out. In my opinion
PIIs and PIIIs are garbage, I would not waste my money on those chips.
