Intel has long discontinued the "A" for meaning 400FSB on the Northwood core - not used at least in the 2.4Ghz range. Right now, the only 2.4Ghz worth buying is the Intel P4 2.4A Prescott 533FSB. Other than that, the Intel P4 2.8C Northwood 800FSB should be what you're looking at - it's only about 10 USD more than the 2.4 C/B and the 2.6 C/B.

Hope that helps,
