Ok, getting ready to look into building a P4 system. Which of these processors would be best?

PENTIUM 4 3.0GHZ-32BIT 1MB MP ( BX80546PG3000E )
PENTIUM 4 2.8GHZ-HT 512K 800FSB S478 ( BX80532PG2800D )
PENTIUM 4 2.8GHZ-32BIT 1MB MP ( BX80546PG2800E )

And what does the MP stand for? Mobile Processor?

I got the 2.8E (was attracted by the 1mb L2 cashe), and have regretted it ever sense!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
