Oldest CPU you have?

[StrangerGuy]

AMD K5.

 

[Geomagick]

Pentium 2 333.

Still working superbly.

I still remember the Headline Klamath Cometh.

 

[Armitage]

Until about a year ago I was using a 486/66 for a dialup router. Then I got DSL and couldn't get two ISA NICs working in it so I went my old PPro 200 with smoothwall for the router.

I still have my IBM 386

Which "other" did you forget about?

NexGen (made as 586 processors, AMD bought them)

IDT (remember the Winchip? VIA bought them along with Cyrix)

The IBM chips were just Cyrix chips made under license. There was also another company making unauthorized chips... IIRC they were traditionally a chipset company... I recall seeing a bunch of their 386SX chips that weren't supposed to be on this side of the Pacific - but they were. Was it ULi?

I have that same proc, I used it with my voodoo 3 back in the day. Well.. not as back in the day as some of these Amigas etc, but you know what I mean.
