Anyone still use Celerons?

[burnedout]

All kinds of 'em:

Dual 533 on this box.
Dual 333 in another box.
800 in my old rig I just took down.
300A@450 sitting on the shelf.
2xSlot 1 300A on the shelf.
700 sitting here on the desk.
And of course, a burnedout (no pun intended) 533 FC-PGA which I fried while overclocking.

Celerons never die they just get cheaper and are replaced by Durons... 😀

Yea that is tru.......my second computer is a abit BP6 mobo and two celerys running at 550. Really good inexpensive system!

tualatins will turn into celerons by the end of the year...so i don't think they'll die.

 

[JoPalm]

got a 850 for my old bh6 its now at 8.5@124 (1050)
not too shaby!

Cel 500 in my laptop...not much I can do about that...besides it works just fine.

I'm sure I won't be buying one the next time I go for a processor, as that will be in a few months and I'll go AMD, but I did just get a thinkpad with a 600 celly in it. seems okay, so far. i'm only going to be using it to practice programming when I'm out and about.

they must hit the pan soon though, as AMD steps even further into the picture?

Got 2 PCs going right now with Celerons, 466 and 500.....very
satisfied as I've been running the 466 with Win98SE for 1.5 years
now and can count on 1 hand the number of BSOD's I've had......

Celeron533A@800 over here.

Sometimes I am tempted to get a nice new Athlon, but why bother?

celeron 566@850 mhz. I will upgrade when I find a game that needs more CPU power.

My 366@550 should hold me for another year or so.
