Wintel Windows + Intel short
Recalling the 20 years of PC history, Microsoft dominates the software development, while the Intel-created PC hardware architecture.

Microsoft and Intel products and technologies escalating at the same time, Wintel model almost dominate the computer industry supply chain, the majority of firms in the direction of development. When Microsoft first launched Windows 95 operating system, when the old computer hardware can hold, in the user from Windows 3.11 and DOS the process of upgrading to Windows 95, Microsoft created a huge success for Intel hardware sales space; successfully developed in Intel's Pentium MMX, Microsoft has also seized the opportunity and the browser Internet Explorer, the two sides take a singing a result, not only lift hardware and software upgrades to buy gas from the entire industry has entered the multimedia age.
Although access to "post-PC era" after, Wintel architecture, the foundation shaken daily, including the AMD sought an alliance with Microsoft, Intel, Microsoft's software dominance override, the others, such as Tablet PC, information appliance (IA), mobile phones and other consumer goods, are no longer with Wintel as the main framework that have made collaboration between Wintel model, in galloping after 20 years, facing wave after wave of new challenges.
However, the recent Still, some analysts predicted that Intel's IA-64 (64-bit computing) will substantially promote access to high-end enterprise Windows servers, Wintel architecture between Microsoft and still have a chance in 2007 than Unix servers as the main operating system platform.
WLAN Wireless Local Area Network
A wireless LAN that can provide mobile users through a wireless (AFP) connected on a local area network (LAN) support for Wireless LAN is the IEEE 802.11 standard technologies. The standard includes the system code method, Wired Equivalent Privacy algorithm. By the bandwidth allocation can reduce the cost of wireless Internet access.
This technique can be applied to hospitals, schools, dormitories, or small corporate offices. And PCMCIA cards with, can be applied to notebook computers.
