no, it's a little faster. Has no L2 cache. Good for internet/office applications, playing back video.
No good for editing, gaming etc

wiull probably "cope"
whats this for? video editing?
celerons are basically budget pentiums
also nowadays processor speed really dont mean much...
you can get a 2.0ghz chip that will kick the arse of a 3ghz chip hands down.

Nobody spotted the "M".
Up to 1MB cache and a short pipeline means quite good for games.

I know it does
Hence why I mentioned the short pipeline. Very good for gaming but slower than a P4 for video editing.
