Yeah, the Celeron. A first gen P3 such as the 450 would have a slow, half-speed cache. That Celeron 700 would be quite a bit faster due to it's fullspeed cache. They use different sockets, though. The P3 would go in a Slot 1 mobo; the Celeron needs a Socket 370 mobo.
My Super P3: Pentium III-S 1.4GHz @ 1.58GHz, 512K L2 X800XT All-in-wonder, overclocked to 580/600. 250GB HD 2 gigs of PC2100 RAM QDI Advance 12 mobo, this baby rocks! SB Audigy 2
