Does anyone know where I can get a nice chart or table showing Intel processors starting from the 8088 up to today's processors along with their rated MIPS / FLOPS, etc.?
I've checked Google but my Google-Fu skills weren't strong enough to really find anything that provided a nice chart.
I'm curious what the GFLOP ratings are for the current Sandy / Ivy Bridge processors and how they compare to, say, an 80286 processor.
I know there are other considerations like newer instruction sets that have come along throughout the ages, but I'm curious as to just how much faster a 2600k Sandy Bridge is compared to an 80286 running at 8 MHz.
Also, does anyone know which Intel Processor was the first to feature two cores?
Edit: Did any of you ever own a computer with an 8086 / 8088 processor back in the day? Let's make this a fun thread reminiscing on the old days! How about the old-school 8 inch floppy disks? How much information did they store? How about those cassette drives for computers like the TI-994a. Does anyone know how much data a cassette stored and what the effective baud rate was when they were transferring information?
