Re: OT: Nature on the 'end' of Moore's Law

[Ola Fosheim Grøstad via Digitalmars-d]

And well, with new materials, the potential for higher speeds. 
These researchers managed to get a silicon-germanium transistor 
up to 800Ghz (cryonic) and the article speaks of the possibility 
of running at Thz.

Moore's law deals with the number of transistors on the same 
chip. But who cares if you can have faster and more?
