"Win9x Killed Pentium Pro" - hardly, I found PPros to be competitive with the 233MHz P5s under '95...
Price killed the PPros, they were MCMs consisting of a core chip and a (big) cache chip which ran at clock clock frequency. They cost a lot more to make and a little bit more to buy. For the applications I was working on the extra price was well worth it, PPros flew on the image processing code I worked on - and it was very easy to optimize for them in comparison to their peers. :)
