Just a minor correction... PIII is socket 370 (or slot 1).
Also, the socket 370 Celeron 1.4GHz (Tualatin core) is essentially the same as a PIII, it even has the same amount of cache, however, it is only available with a 100MHz front side bus.

yeah, socket 7 is long gone. I think mine uses a socket 478 for a P4 1.6

A friend just called me out of the blue and said that he has a computer with a 1.5G Celeron that i'd just have to throw RAM and a new hard drive in.
I'm thinking that would make the most sense at this point.
