What would be a breakthrough at IBM is them finding some way to majorly cut back on offshoring.

This achievement is pretty close to the ultimate miniaturization possible. Three gold atoms lined up are about one nano meter long.

The one that started it all in 1971. The first commerically available microprocessor. The 4-bit Intel 4004. Running at a blistering clock speed of 740khz.
Invented by 3 evil white guys.

Will it improve Microsoft Word?

40 percent greater performance than today's 10nm chips, or a 75 percent power savings at the same performance.That is mind blowing. Hardly anything improves at that rate. The only other thing that comes to mind is fiber optic communications development in the 90s. The optical physics researchers were coming up with incredible breakthroughs in every component required to build an optical communication system.

The stock scam that is ibm I believe wants to be aquired by Apple. Then it can be cool again to get Big beefy mainframe. System z seems pretty cool. Watson should figure a way to make a profit with out all the service licensing agreement skullduggery. When was their last profitable quarter?
