PIII 866 or Celeron 900?

[mricks86]

I have a couple processors laying around, both of which I could put into the second machine I have built for the kids. Is there any advantage at all (overclocking or otherwise) to going with the Celery 900 over the PIII 866? I was going to go with the PIII but figured just in case you guys/gals know something I don't, I'd ask to see if there is any advantage in using the Celery. Any advice is appreciated! Thanks!

No advantage at all that i know of!

I doubt the kids would notice, but the 866 would out perform the 900.

By a very large margin in almost every application.
