The processor that started Intel's 32 bit line of x86 chips. Some say the 386 was the high point of Intel's CPU making career, and I sometimes agree. Everything that came after was simply piling more crud on top, making the chips faster but holding onto all the useless baggage from previous generation (like x86 Real Mode). Something totally new should have come after the 386, or maybe the 486. The Pentium was a joke, especially the P60. Friggin' 1/2" x 1/2" die...
