This summer, we will offer you the return of a topic, Nostalgeek. And we decided to dwell on a specific year: 2001. Distant and close both, the year 2001 is interesting to analyze, to show developments in the high-tech in 10 years. Each day, during the holidays, we will offer you a retrospective of a week of 2001, with the news of the day and a small analysis on what there is in 2011.
And we are in May 2001.
Via chipsets specialist, is well and poster sales on the rise, in 99 million of $ on April. Intel, meanwhile, decreased the price of its processors: the recent Pentium 4 1.7 GHz is worth $352 (and this is the top of range) and other models are worth between 193 and $256.
In 2011, Via has a turnover of 15.7 million from $ in April. At Intel, processors for individuals reach $1,000 and a few high-end models exceed $500. The price of ix (excluding extreme and Pentium) Core ranges from $113 to 583.

In storage, the first 24 x writers arrive (3.6 MB/s) and Plextor will offer IDE, SCSI and FireWire versions. In networks, the first products Wi - Fi at a correct price arrive: card 802.11 b (11 Mbps) about €250 and access points including an Ethernet, a modem V.90 and the WEP. The 64-bit WEP, to pay about €500 and for the 128-bit WEP, the price rises to 1 €350. Remember that Apple provides its products AirPort (trade name) for $100 card and $300 the kiosk (Ethernet/V.90/WEP 64-bit).
In 2011, the engravers are SATA and possibly USB (2.0 or 3.0) but the IDE, the SCSI and the FireWire are very rare. In Wi - Fi, cards work to 450 megabits/s and are integrated into the computers and access points incorporate Ethernet 1 gigabit/s. In the majority of cases, the access point is available with subscriptions to the Internet.
