Alone, this oddly narrow and technical dictum — that the power, miniaturization, size, and power of integrated circuit chips will, together, double every couple years — has done a better job than any other in determining the pace of daily life, the ups and downs of the economy, the pace of innovation, and the creation of new companies, fads, and lifestyles.

Didn't the original 'law' say 'every 6 months'? Still, it's impressive...

Check out “The Singularity is Near” by Ray Kurzweil.

It is overly optimistic, but I think Ray has a good handle on where technology is going.
