I'm starting to feel alone out here in old-school-Celeron-land.
Who has the slowest main rig, used as the 'daily driver'.

<---- Celeron @ 500Mhz :D

My slowest would be the XP1600+ MP3 server. Then I also have the dual XP1800+ and a p4 2.0. However, I do have an unused Duron 1.0 sitting on my desk.

Okay, so it's not my main 'computer', but I've got an MC68000 hiding around here somewhere...

I've got a Duron 700 and I use it regularly, even now, it's slow as heck, but I'm too lazy to upgrade.

I'm using a P200 right now.
The charities that give computers to poor families won't even accept my machine as a donation.

I have a Duron 750 (at 750).

Sometimes it'll overclock to 1000...it used to be really stable at that speed...but lately it hasn't been.

I played UT2003 with my Duron at 750 (default install settings)

I found it to be fine for play at the LAN party.

Other than that I honestly don't notice the difference between 750 and 1Ghz.
I'm in no hurry to upgrade.
