There's probably a few boxes I'm missing in there, and there's been an occasional Mac and AMD proc (K6, Athlon 64) tossed in the list too.

First few are unknown. Many died at my hands in failed overclocking attempts.
AMD Athlon K6
AMD Athlon K7
AMD Athlon XP(Ran quite a few of these into the ground over the years)
AMD Athlon 64 3000+(939 version)
I ran my 64 for YEARS, it served me very well. I overclocked it many different times with results about average for that line of CPUs.

At this point I sold my Athlon 64 3000+, GeForce 6600 rig to a friend for like $300 and switched teams.

Intel Core 2 Duo E6600(nobody can argue the impact the Conroe's had on the market. I ran this chip between 2.8-3.4 for 2 years, now it's in my friends media server)
Intel Core i7-930(Current)

I almost opened the box on the i7-970 I ordered, but I'm returning it. Going to wait for something along the lines of SB, 8 threads is more than I use right now and I would love have a CPU I could run at massive clock speed for gaming.
 
I can't remember everything, but these are the ones I'm sure of.

Pentium II
Pentium IV
Athlon XP 2X00+
Athlon 64 3400+
E8400

pentium 166mmx
pentium 3 500 (possibly a pentium 2 before this but cannot remember)

amd 64 3500+ (became backup system when got c2d)
core2duo 6420
amd64 x2 5600+ (replace amd 64 3500+ as backup system)

sorry to recycle some ones post some. it was just a time saver.

but to be honest i cant even remember .im a hardware recycler so the amount of cpus that go in one hand and out the other is hard to remember. started with apple ][ though.
i do have a big bag full of older stuff kicking around the oldest being a 286 AMD 20mgz cpu.
oldest working with a motherboard\cpu combo would be a lintel p55c 75mgz + asus p5a super socket 7 mobo
