Maxy,
From Toms hardware
K6-350/100 Celeron 333/66
Winstone 98 27.2 26.8
HighEnd 98 33.4 35
Highend NT 34.6 38.7
3D gaming 59 55
FPU 3d rendering 22.0 32.1

I hate to say it, but the K6-2-350/100 while much more expensive because it requires expensive PC100 memory is SLOWER than the Celeron 333/66 in 3 of the 5 benchmarks.

Yup, the poor consumer is fooled of course. AMD has to sell the K6-2-350/100 at least 50% below the Celeron 333.
