There are two "Celeron 420" chips: the one you said, the Celeron M 420 is
a
533FSB Pentium-M ("Dothan") derivative, so basically your upgrade options
would be likely to be just the single-core Pentium M chips of that
generation... which are hard to find.
There is also a "Celeron 420" (no M) which is much newer and somewhat
faster; it's an 800FSB single core version of a Core 2 Duo ("Conroe" or in
this case, "Conroe-L".)
A quick googling is inconclusive - newegg indicates it's the Celeron M
(see
969084U) but that makes little sense in a desktop, and most other sites
seem
to indicate that the J200 is also available with other modern low-end
processors (ie the Pentium Dual Core E2xxx chips) which would indicate the
newer Celeron.
If it's the newer Celeron, then pretty much any of the 65nm Socket 775
800fsb chips will work, and the odds are pretty good that the 1066fsb ones
will as well.
