S, re:<K6-2-350 selling for $30 more than Celeron-333, and is less performant than the 333>
Actually, Celeron 333A Winbench98=26.3, K6-2-333 Winbench98=26.2, but the K6-2-333 with fan is selling for $156.50 vs. $229.80, a 32% discount. (http://www.thechipmerchant.com) Benchmarks at

The faster K6-2-350 chip (Winbench98=27.2) with fan is $239.50, less than $10 more (4%) than the 333A, not $30 more as you claim. As Maxwell pointed out in another post, all these Celeron chips look sick in comparison to AMD in any 3D games like Quake II, Incoming, Unreal, Trespasser Jurassic Park, Baseball 3D, Ares Risin, etc.
