What is the most common bus type in use today, and what did it replace as the general standard in modern computers? What do each stand for?
PCI is the most commonly used bus type today, replacing the old ISA standard. PCI stands for Peripheral Component Interconnect. ISA stands for Industry Standard Architecture.
The ISA bus was sometimes called the AT bus after the IBM PC-AT in which it was first used in 1984.
