How about first 90 MHz Pentium in 1994? First Pentium II in 1997? Price of fastest Athlon K7 in August 1999? All more than $750 despite 20 years of inflation.</text><parent_chain><item><author>sbov</author><text>Although it&amp;#x27;s a &amp;quot;consumer&amp;quot; chip, at a pricetag of $750 its kind of a weird hybrid.</text></item><item><author>vbezhenar</author><text>And it&amp;#x27;s a consumer cheap, not really from the same league.
