Over at xbox-linux.org they have it labled as Celeron. I'd take their word for it as they've done more work on Xboxes then anyone else.
That is a Wiki site. Anyone could have thought it was a Celeron and changed it to say that.

They have a section of the site tha is wiki, but the front page is only updated by a select few, and that is where you see them say its Celeron.

Yes, but a 1GHz C3 benchmarks worse than a lot of 700MHz processors. And the mini-ITX boards' onboard video is pretty crappy. And they charge too much for what it is.

Dude, just give it up, it's healthier that way. I already explained clearly why you can call it either. Let's keep things clean :) What I call Celeron you call Pentium-III. It's not quite either so we're both right or wrong depending on how you choose to look at it.

I have no problem with your explanation, it's just annoying that Sparkfist decided to come in and stir up more argument after the issue had been solved.

It could be that he started to post before I had posted mine though... in any case, it has a 733MHz something-or-other and let's leave it at that :)
