  1. Comment - Intel Reinvents the Transistor

    So we go all the way to the atom.
    Then I guess we just keep increasing clock speeds and researching parallel processing?

    If the speed of light is as fast as you can go and
    electricity flows at that speed, then this is an issue of switching frequency rather than speed of source.

    Of course, for the average Windows user, the machines are getting so fast that new and old are hard to tell apart. The rushes of speed we used to feel a decade ago aren't happening anymore for me.
