The Celeron vs. the Pentium III Processor

When the Eclipse entered production, it could be ordered with either a Celeron
366MHz processor in the Plastic Pin Grid Array (PPGA) package, or a Pentium III
700 MHz processor in the Flip-Chip Grid Array (FC-PGA) package.
In late 2003, the new processor selections became available. The new selections are
either a Celeron 850MHz in the FC-PGA package, or a Pentium III 1 GHz, also in the
FC-PGA package. Figure 3-33, below, points out examples of the PPGA and FC-PGA
packages.
