MCS originally stood for Micro Computer Set, Set referring to the “set” of chips in the family. Intel continued to use this naming convention to describe its other families processors and eventually the “Set” became “System”. The Sets included the processor chip and other chips specifically designed for used with processor, primarily memory and interface chips.<\/p>\n
