wbmw,

Well it sounds like prices must have seriously dropped during that year, because I looked it up, and the 200MHz PPro (small cache version) launched in November, 1995 for $1325. Meanwhile, Pentium 166 MMX launched in January, 1997 for $407.

Pentium 2 launched at 300 MHz and somewhere between $2K and 3K, IIRC. But it dropped in price, eventually reaching Celeron. 128K L2 version was the Intel CPU I used for my main personal computer. (I got another P 2 or 3 server at home for some light testing work, but it is not my workstation).
