Pentium or MMX?
I had a Deskpro from about the same time that had dual Pentium Pro 200s in it.
I cant remember a lot about it other than it sounded amazing and it was so powerful!
It was that that made me buy my first Supermicro board a few years later.
Pentium 133mhz in my case. There are some higher end variants in the same line, but the 133mhz is the one I have. S3 trio video, ESS 1888F, 8x cdrom, 16mb ram stock (at least on my model, higher amounts on other models in the same line) upgraded by prior owner to 128, 1.6gb hdd, isa and pci slots, gamepad port... It's pretty cool because it's got all that integrated into the motherboard and very compatible with games of the era due to the ess and S3 trio combo.
I own this model specifically because my family had it when I was a teenager, and it's super nostalgic. Sadly this series of Presario is difficult to find these days or I'd own more than one, but I'm happy to have one at all.
