- ChileanGoD, on 12/24/2009, -0/+13Heh... so we better get ready to measure CPU's in Moles instead of millions of transistors.
- govtdoesnotwork, on 12/23/2009, -0/+13If any of you have Dads that tell stories about vacuum tubes, I think you should send this to them. I sure am.
- wjlaw100, on 12/24/2009, -0/+12Really... really carefully.
- tim04, on 12/24/2009, -0/+10100GHz CPU here we come!
- RawrSpoon, on 12/24/2009, -0/+8How would you solder this?
- achansen121, on 12/24/2009, -1/+6No one could possibly need that fast a processor. /s
- InsaneOni, on 12/24/2009, -0/+5Tubes are still better in guitar amps tho!
- pepotero13, on 12/24/2009, -2/+6Who Cares! ITS CHRISTMAS! :D. I dont see science giving me free presents even tho I might have killed a few people. All I see science doing is having proof of such crimes and putting me in jail. stupid science!
GOOOOOOOO SANTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - mrbuerger, on 12/24/2009, -0/+4Someone has already said that in the past, about GHz
- stewbiez, on 12/24/2009, -0/+3Everyone who owns crysis will need it.
- iancgi, on 12/24/2009, -0/+3They will be way faster than that.
- japican, on 12/24/2009, -1/+4Hey you, hey you, Devil's little sister
- sat0shi, on 12/24/2009, -0/+3But technically with the multi-cores we've surpassed 10 GHz total processing power in consumer PCs so that's a pretty big deal I think.
- average650, on 12/24/2009, -0/+2I think this is the paper they are talking about

- TxAggie08, on 12/24/2009, -0/+2Just hold your hand steady and don't sneeze...or breath
- Bakedwafer, on 12/24/2009, -0/+1Welcome back Jan Hendrik Schön.
- CCmachined, on 01/03/2010, -0/+1billions, trillions, quadrillions of transistors!
- dmcaudio, on 12/24/2009, -1/+2I guess i need to start walking uphill to get to that new fangled typewriter TV store to get me some mega hurts. But then I'll have to carry it uphill all the way back. I wonder if my Corvair has enough room in the trunk.
- kd1s, on 12/24/2009, -0/+1Looks like we'll get a little more mileage out of Moore's Law.
- elfprince13, on 12/24/2009, -0/+1Given that we still haven't really moved past 4 GHz in the decade that I've been paying attention to CPU speeds, I find this unlikely ;) We've gone from 0.7 GHz all the way up to 3.7 GHz....and then back down again when the multi-core craze set in.
- ZestyO, on 12/24/2009, -0/+1"No one will need more than 637 kb of memory for a personal computer."
- Amablue, on 12/24/2009, -0/+1By the time that article was published, they were already obsolete.
- JaxxBat, on 12/24/2009, -0/+1Yup. the carbon silicon link
- yuanzhoulu, on 12/24/2009, -1/+1this uses the Allotostonderry-Vumpumberry effect, it's pretty neat
- sanders555, on 01/03/2010, -0/+0What's so great about a molecular transistor when they have already discovered a single-atom transistor?

- MarkyNouj, on 12/24/2009, -2/+1Science is awesome!
(Note: I say this with no sarcasm whatsoever. Sometimes it's tricky to distinguish tone in writing...) - Maximatum99, on 12/24/2009, -3/+1Actually, for heavy VFX it takes ***** loads of power
- wjlaw100, on 12/24/2009, -3/+1I'll be a diode, cathode, electrode
Overload, generator, oscillator
Make a circuit with me
