Source for K6 "Plus" CPUs for diehard 'Super Socket Seven' users

Agreed; these chips "ain't no great shake" compared to even a Duron if you are
building new.

But if you know about the "last gasp of the K6's / almostAthlons" ; these are
choice -

AMD K6-II+ 550MHz CPU $39.99

AMD K6-III+ 450MHz CPU $59.99

I've been looking for some of those chips, but do you know of any
sources that don't charge such absolute rip-off prices? $39.99 is
ridiculous when I can sometimes get a a retail boxed Athlon XP1800+
with heatsink/fan plus a mobo for only $20, especially when the mobo
can use existing PC133 memory (or PC100 if I underclock by 25%) and is
compatible with older PSUs that don't have that square +12V P4
connector.

a mobo for only $60,

newegg has k6-2 500s for $17 shipped

They've since cut it to $16, shipped. Unfortunately, my mobos won't
cache more than either 64M or 255M of main memory, and having any more
memory in the system causes Win98 to slow to a crawl. I'm interested
in the K6-2+ because it has its own L2 cache that can get around this.

Thanks, I am familiar with newegg. However, the context of the newegg
mention was for the K6 CPUs not the "I can sometimes get a a retail boxed
Athlon XP1800+ with heatsink/fan plus a mobo for only $20".

I am really keen for a deal that is reasonably close to $20 or even less
than $60.

Nowhere. I meant to type $60. That proves there's a definite
Saddam - Al Quida conspiracy.

Same here. I'd love to dump the three Celerons I have on my LAN and re-use
the 256MB SD-RAM each is running in one of these combos.

Spill the beans R. Asby Dragon please.

Okay, Saddam - Al Quida conspiracy boy, where can you get them for $60.
