Question On pricewatch I see
the Pentium III 866 mhz 133bus for 47 dollars (866/256/133)
the Pentium III 850 mhz 100bus are 84 dollars (850/256/100 )
Is the price difference because of supply and demand or is there
another reason for this ?

The reason for the price difference is that there are far more boards out
there that are in need of an upgrade that will run a 100Mhz FSB than there
are boards that will run a 133MHz FSB. Therefore the 100Mhz FSB CPU is
more
in demand. Most people running a board that runs at 133Mhz already have a
CPU equal to or better than the 133Mhz unit.
