When ive got the time and money I want to start collecting old cpus. This has got to be one of the hardest to get and its going cheap! Well I think so anyway.
35 years old and 740khz :) Its not the gold c4004 though, they really are rare.

The pre-production version was 108Khz, they were all set I think with leaving it at 108Khz (they even printed 108 on the datasheet!) but must have realised they were in Windows 9x territory so had to push the boat out a bit.

The 8008 (or one of the 8xxx series processors) are still used in some calculators now! Believe it or not people overclock them and everything!
