It looks like Cisco is going to finally start phasing out the Linksys name which has been a very well known name among US consumers. I got my first Linksys router back around 1998 for about $200. Before those were available, we had to use internet sharing apps such as Viacomsoft Internet Gateway (Mac) or Sygate (PC). It was such a pain in the ass back then to use your main computer as the gateway for the rest of the house and having to announce to the rest of the house when you needed to reboot (I was in my early 20's living at home at the time).
