Whoa, this is a big deal if true. Having to burn off the substrate was a big drawback and a major problem for mass-production. They’ve essentially made a reusable die for the graphene matrix, bumping the reproducibility of the product manifold. This is very exciting and could lead to a revolution in computing.

My prediction: 100+ cores on one server proc die by 2020.

I thought IBM were the leaders on this on. Did they let it get away from them?

500Ghz transistors!

When you need raw processing power...faster is always better.

At 500Ghz a lot of strange stuff will be possible.

I would appreciate it if somebody more knowledgeable than me (a very large group) could explain how much this would speed processing up relative to existing systems.

Gasp! This is a terrible, frightening event!

Carbon is POISONOUS!! All industrial use of carbon was well on it’s way to being properly suppressed as the awful Enemy of Nature that it is!!

STOP BIG CARBON FROM DESTROYING THE EARFF!!

(I can’t wait to hear some enviro say this seriously.)
