August 14, 2009, Newsletter Issue #180: Intel Celeron Microprocessors

Tip of the Week

While marketing its Pentium line of microprocessors, Intel also released in 1998 the Intel Celeron microprocessor, which was reduced in price compared to the price of the Pentium microprocessor. It was designed using a Pentium II microprocessor as its blueprint. The Celeron microprocessors were not popular until the release of the Mendocino Celerons with L2 cache, which was previously lacking in the original Celeron chip. The last Intel Celeron microprocessor released is Intel Celeron D and Celeron M or Mobile, with a 1.2-1.6 GHz clock speed.
