Cringe - Re: " Intel came out with the 300 MMX because OEM's wanted a faster processor to put into their mini-laptops. I doubt it will compete with a K6-2 notebook. "

It already is.

IBM is using it in one of their ThinkPads.

Re: "and the Celerons don't have 3D Now nor a 100/95MHz bus. "

3DNOW is a DON'T CARE - because NOBODY CARES except ChipTECH and Petz.

Re: "How much do they cost?"

266 MHz Dixons start at $187 - cheaper if you order by the 100,000's.
