I remember Microsoft being a huge marketing proponent of the 3-tier architecture in the late 90's, particularly after the release of ASP. The model was promoted everywhere - MSDN, books, blogs, conferences. At this point COM was out of the picture and ASP served as both front-end (serving HTML) and back-end (handling server responses).
