Hi,
I am looking to buy a notebook computer. Which is better? a Celeron 2.0Ghz or a Athlon 2200+ processor. I know the P4 may be better, but these are my choices for now. |

| I'd have thought an Athlon would be better, but that's purely based on the fact that the word 'Celeron' sounds a bit like 'celery', and that's bad. |

| Celerons and Athlons are completely different architecture. A celeron is a cut down pentium and a duron is a cut down athlon. ur better off comparing athlons and pentiums or durons and celerons :) |
