OK, it's not really 500 megapixels. They stuck together 60 8 megapixel

RESEARCHERS SAY NEW CHIP BREAKS SPEED RECORD
Mon Jun 19 2006 22:57:25 ET
Researchers at IBM and the Georgia Institute of Technology are set to
announce Tuesday that they have broken the speed record for silicon-based
chips with a semiconductor that operates 250 times faster than chips
commonly used now.
The NEW YORK TIMES reports: The achievement is a major step in the evolution
of computer semiconductor technology that could eventually lead to faster
networks and more powerful electronics at lower prices, said Bernard
Meyerson, vice president and chief technologist in IBM 's systems and
technology group. He said developments like this one typically find their
way into commercial products in 12 to 24 months.
