Go up one level in this thread


Celeron processors are very inexpensive now and are quite fast.
A Celeron 466 or 500 is a fine choice. I recently needed a
couple light-duty database servers at work and got sub-$1000
Celeron 466 boxes, which I've had no complaints about. IMO it
is hard to justify going with a Pentium III unless you really
need the high-end 600 Mhz or up models.

AMD K-6/2 is also quite reliable and very cheap.

AMD K-6/3 I have no experience with, but I hear good things about
it.
