Celeron fits into the budget category. Intel has always had these chips and in the old days they were marked with "sx" (386sx, 486sx). Now they're called Celerons, and there are several varieties. The only two you should need to know about are P3 Celerons and P4 Celerons. These are low-cache varieties of the P3 and P4. Right now P3 Celerons are the most common, and fit into the older-style Socket 370 motherboards. The P4 Celerons require the newer boards.
