Well, in May 1997, Pentium II launch prices were about $700[0] (over $1,300, inflation adjusted). This was not their primary pricing list...

No Pentiums and such?


The URL is "/design/pricelst/32BMP.htm" so maybe these are just the parts meant for custom designs, not those exclusively for PC use. 386s were commonly used for control systems and other custom stuff, and down the list there are a bunch of i960 parts.

Looks like this is list of embedded chips, not desktop. On desktop already was Pentium.
