Ii have a 550MHz.

Did a total upgrade from my Celery 504 - well sold my Celery 450 and used the money to help buy my athlon.

Got a 550MHz, MSI 6167, Maxtor D-Max Plus 7200RPM, 2mb duffer, UDMA-66 15GBb hard drive, 128MB RAM, 5X Creative DVD, zip, e.t..c

Certainly muchg faster than the Celery 504 (Chaintech 6BTM, Maxtor 5400RPM 8.4GB, 96MB RAM)

It is very easy to see the speed increase. Ii did a clean install of Win98 on both and the Athlon seemed to be about 20% faster for loading apps such as word 2k, win98, e.t..c
