財(cái)富精英勵(lì)志演講 第54期:信息技術(shù)的力量(3)

[00:00:34]The trend in data storage is even more impressive. 數(shù)據(jù)存儲(chǔ)技術(shù)的發(fā)展趨勢(shì)更是令人瞠目。 [00:04:07]In the early 80s, the standard unit of computer storage, 八十年代初期，一個(gè)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)單位的計(jì)算機(jī)存儲(chǔ)能力， [00:08:43]one mega-byte, or one million bytes of information, cost about 100 dollars. 即 1MB，或者說 1 百萬字節(jié)，售價(jià)是 100 美元， [00:16:03]Today, it is 10 cents. In two years, it will cost 2 cents. 而現(xiàn)在卻只要 10 美分，兩年內(nèi)還將降到 2 美分。 [00:24:15]These gains are driven by continuous advances in how we pack information into smaller and smaller spaces. 這種結(jié)果是在技術(shù)不斷進(jìn)步的推動(dòng)下產(chǎn)生的，我們可以把信息存儲(chǔ)到越來越小的空間。 [00:34:14]If the US Library of Congress could shrink its collections of 17 million books by the same factor we just discussed, 如果把這種技術(shù)用到美國(guó)國(guó)會(huì)圖書館的 1700 百萬冊(cè)存書上， [00:47:29]it could replace 800 kilometers of shelf space with less than 40 meters of space. 其書架長(zhǎng)度將由 800 公里變成不到 40 米。 [01:00:03]These advances are going to continue and accelerate 這種進(jìn)步將繼續(xù)下去，并且會(huì)加速 [01:03:47]the rate microprocessors, storage, communications, memory, and all the other engines that are propelling this industry 微處理器、存儲(chǔ)設(shè)備、通信、內(nèi)存以及所有其它正在推動(dòng)信息產(chǎn)業(yè)前進(jìn)的“發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)”式的產(chǎn)品的發(fā)展， [01:12:30]or continue to lead to the products of the faster, smaller, and less expensive, just as they have for 30 years. 或者會(huì)繼續(xù)創(chuàng)造出更快、更小、更便宜的產(chǎn)品。過去 30 年的情況就是如此。 [01:21:36]But as we stand here today, the opening of CeBIT, we are on the threshold of a very important change and the evolution of this industry. 然而當(dāng)我們今天站在這里，出席 CeBIT 的開幕式的時(shí)候，我們面對(duì)的是一場(chǎng)業(yè)界非常重要的變化和革命。 [01:38:20]In many ways, this industry, a very emitory industry, is about to play out in its most important dimension. 在很多方面，信息產(chǎn)業(yè)將成為最重要的產(chǎn)業(yè)。 [01:48:18]That is because the technology has become so powerful and so pervasive 這是因?yàn)樾畔⒓夹g(shù)已經(jīng)變得如此強(qiáng)大、如此普遍， [01:53:51]that its future impact on people and governments and all institutions will dwarf what has happened today. 以致于未來它對(duì)人們、政府和各個(gè)機(jī)構(gòu)的影響將使目前發(fā)生的事相形見絀。
