While I couldn't find much info, the seller indicated that the CPU was
rare, and, for my motherboard, the best(?).

It was the first processor with Hyperthreading (one physical core and
one virtual core). I would say it's relatively common, as it was a
top of the line at the time it was offered. When Hyperthreading is
enabled, you should see two processor traces in Task Manager (in
Windows). If you have Win98, then Win98 only supports one core,
so the second (virtual) core wouldn't be visible.

I don't know what the price was on the day it was introduced, but
it was certainly a lot more than $30 back then.
