Yes, the Celeron will probably top out around 1.7Ghz, so not as much of an upgrade path, but a system that is being built for someone that knows absolutely nothing about a computer, the Celeron is the way to go for hassle free running instead of tweaking here and there on the AMD. If it's just gonna be surfin' and word processing, the upgrade path is a very minimal concern.
