John is correct, you could buy a K6-III+ 450 CPU and overclock it to 600MHz
easily in most cases, but they are hard-to-find and overpriced. You would
get a much better performance boost for your money going to an AMD Socket A
(Athlon XP)-based system; and you can put one together very inexpensively
now.
