Which would be faster?

I know using the term ''fast'' is kinda funny here, but I have two CPU's and wondering which one would be faster at normal everyday tasks like internet and so forth.

They are both socket 478 Northwood 130nm CPU's.

One is a pentium 4 1.8ghz with 512kb cache, and other is a 2.6ghz celeron with 128k cache. Both 400 FSB.

I'm thinking the large jump in clock speed will win over the cache size, but what do you guys think would be better for an internet only PC?
 
Thanks but it doesn't give anything conclusive there. Looks like for any kind of games the P4 would be better, thanks to the cache I'm sure. But this PC won't be used for anything that those benchmarks test. Well, the PCmark scored the celeron decently higher, so I guess that would probably be the best bench to go off of.
