I believe the Atom can run two types of external buses, for just that reason.

I said I'd get one when I could get a 1024x600 screen, but that was assuming I could not get 64 bit (yes, I have software that doesn't need speed but would be much better if I could run the newer 64 bit version) and hyper threaded (close enough to dual core, and given the design of the Atom, a big win, unlike the P4).

Is the Celeron soldered in? Does the Atom fit is slot?

It's at least two week old news that Asus was jumping the Atom gun and putting Celeron units out there.

Some people at JKOTR have said the Atom is as bad as the A110. If that's the case, I'd rather snag a Celeron unit. My fondle of a Samsung Q1U with A110 was horrible. The Q1 with Celeron whupped its tush.
