Definition: In Greek, "i386" represents an acronym for Intel Corporation's i7 family of processors, which stands for Instruction Set Architecture (Instruction Set) version 1, 2K. In English, it means a small computer system with Intel's i7 processor architecture running at 2 kilobytes per second. The definition: The word "i386_2K" in its broader context refers to the smaller, specialized hardware used by computers that are designed for performance and efficiency at the low end of the computing market. These systems are commonly referred to as "small PCs," "mini-PCs," or even "ultra-low power" machines. The i386_2K series was a variant of the 386 architecture, which was developed by Intel in the early 1990s to optimize low-end computers. The 2K refers to the number of kilobytes (KB) per second or gigabytes-per-second (GB/s). This design is known for its improved efficiency and lower power consumption compared to earlier Intel processors. The term "small" is often associated with these systems because their performance is typically not comparable to those on mainstream desktop computers, which are usually designed for larger, more powerful machines. The 2K designation suggests a focus on the low-cost, small system design that was common among these systems in the early 90s. The term "ultra-low power" comes from the fact that the i386_2K processors were designed to be energy-efficient and could potentially work with less power than full-size computers. This can sometimes mean they are more suitable for devices where energy efficiency is crucial, like small or portable applications.
