Go with the P4 because Celeron Processors suck.
BUT, then again, I would personally reccomend an AMD processor, but out of those two choices the P4 for sure!
Celeron processors have less L2 Cache!
The Celeron be faster as far as MHZ but the P4 will work better.
and as far as the 120 vs 160 gig hard drives, yes the 160 is better but a 250-300gig drive costs a mear $100. You are better off getting the P4 and buying another hard drive to add to the machine if you need the space.
"We'd also like to remind our readers that the performance of modern processors isn't determined by clock speed alone. AMD processors, for example, clearly out-perform their Pentium 4 rivals that run at the same clock speeds. A Pentium 4 running at 2 GHz is just as fast as an Athlon XP running at 1.6 GHz (2000+). There are differences in each case, depending on the individual application. You'll get similar results when you compare the Celeron and the Pentium 4."
P.S. as for that thumbs down i got, that was the other guy who posted an answer (wrong answer) then deleted it. Nice, real nice! If you want to give me a thumbs down, shouldn't you at least share you're views on why my answer is wrong? Yeah, no. I guess not.
