These are an excellent, excellent value right now.

In all the reports of overclocked PPro150s I've seen, I've never
heard of one that wouldn't do 180 reliably. However, you want to
do 166, and get 10% more bus speed (and thus memory bandwidth).

Oddly enough, though, while my PPro 150 overclocked to 166 is
noticably faster than my old P133, it's not screamingly faster,
like twice the speed, or anything like that. Maybe half again as
much.
