Just to mention one example, HP`s first CPUs that had hand written timings and other specs used in average hardware. These CPUs were faster than all of these listed, Intel 4004, 4040, 8080 and Motorola 6800, there are more that's just a few to mention. These CPUs were the longest manufactured and so far advanced in every way back than but so rare to find now. Prices ranging from $100 to $5,000 and even $10K depending on which model you have and condition. That's rare
These bring a higher price tag than the lower cache versions of the same cpu so they pass your definitely of 'rare'.



Are they the rarest? Not even close, but they are rare for their generation of processor. I'm still looking for them to upgrade my systems...
