Thanks for all your responses.

I believe I'll go for the real P4 2.4GHz.

We wanted alot of HD space because the main project that we are getting this
together for is for a local News Paper that has been archiving all there
articles on their site.

The site is already built, and so far there is 1.3 Gigs of pdf news clips
online. There will be many years worth added on in the near future.

The DBs would not be very big in size.

Does anyone know if this problem has been experienced on, say Debian?

  I agree, there's insufficient reason to use Celeron chips, especially in a
server (I wouldn't even get one for a workstation).

  I consider them to be less than desirable for all uses, I'd find somewhere
else to cut that 100.

    The Celeron 2.6 does not have Hyperthreading...for about $100 more you
    can get the a regular 2.4 w/hyperthreading, well worth it for the apps
    you are going to be running.
    Like others have said though, you are going to be memory bound long
    before you are CPU bound.
