Celeron is one of the two "rons" to avoid. I have dell inspiron 5150 (not one of the "rons")with 2.8 core 2. The only disadvantage is they take more power than the current "dual core" or "amd x2" machines. A Celeron at 1.6 (with a single processor) is relatively retarded. It will work quite well with only Vortexbox installed but winders is out of the question.
