i am asking this question cuz me and my friend are trying to settle a debate. also, i am curious. :]
i've heard that pentiumIIIs were pretty good, and celerons aren't.
which is faster in general: Pentium III-M 1.13GHZ OR Celeron-M 1.5GHZ
i know, the clockspeeds are faster in the celeron-M, but i've heard that celerons suck. which one is faster in general?

Celeron M. -Based on newer architecture. -4x more cache (256KB on P3, 1MB on Celly-M) -much faster fsb, RAM, etc -assuming both use integrated GFX, the Celly-M will have much faster video performance.

EDIT: I just remembered that a P3 1.13 is a Tualatin core, so it would have 512KB of cache instead of 256.
Still, the Celeron has twice that number.
