i've always found the best place to check for new hardware is
www.pricewatch.com
if you want a PIII 550, you should be looking in the $260-280 range.
good luck.
You sure you don't want a PIII550E, the coppermine? It can run at 800+.
www.overclockers.com CPU Database.
A PIII 550 E can be had at egghead.com for $229.00. Note that they
are backordered. I have not seen any price close to this so whether
they deliver mine is the real question.

too bad the stores at pricewatch.com make you pay 20 bucks for shipping on

Most of the stores have good prices, but
they make up for it with outrageous shipping charges. I was going to order a
hard disk and a modem yesterday from one place that had very good prices, but
the shipping charge turned out to be $30 for UPS ground. Ridiculous! I didn't
place the order, BTW.
