Do you think it is worth upgrading your processor? From memory, looking at benchmarks on the Internet, your Celeron 266@448Mhz runs equivalent to a Pentium II-350Mhz in Window applications due to the lack of L2 cache. A Celeron 300A @450Mhz runs equivalent to a PII-450Mhz. and a Celeron300A goes for about $150.00 So the question is do you think $150.00 is worth paying to get a speed increase from PII-350Mhz to 450Mhz?
