[Mr. K]

cool

[driftdiver]

Skynet thanks Samsung.

[null and void]

Dammit. My graphene phone briquetted itself!

[rarestia]

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.

Here's mine Graphene thingy...and it is Y2k OK

And it wasn’t that many years ago the electronic stuff from Samsung was considered the cheapest junk you could buy! But my cheesy microwave still works, and I just got one of their tvs. But when they first hit the market here they were considered to be junk.

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.

Carbon sequestration = GOOD!

[Lazamataz]

It’s becoming obvious mankind didn’t invent any of this stuff. This is clearly stuff being reverse-engineered from the Area 51 spacecraft.

[Paladin2]

I went to a gas grill, so my yard’s intelligence has obviously dropped.

[rarestia]

Most of this stuff is electrical in nature. Given the predisposition to anal probes, I guess that most aliens used waste to power their craft.

[Lazamataz]

Gives a whole new meaning to Ass-cending to the stars.

Or should that be Ass-End-ing?

[rarestia]

You tell me, Laz. You seem to be educated in the art of dick-tion.

[Ray76]

I think IBM is working on some sort of diamond chip.

[NormsRevenge]

Implantable? Coming soon.
