Holy Guacamole, Batman - that's so incredibly tiny. That "486" comparison really puts things into perspective. My head reels..and just when I thought that Moore's Law was dead.

Intel and other fabs are struggling now. I expect 2-5nm to be the breaking point of traditional lithography. Unless they come up with something else. And from what I've seen, they probably will.

Well, silicone has limitations...and I'm shocked that they've gotten dies down to 10nm. That wasn't supposed to happen due to normal thermal dynamics. The heat and electricity and smaller gaps...creating cascading shorts..anyway, the move is to molecular stuff. Graphene and similar tech. Samsung now has a Graphene battery that charges 5 times faster than any existing battery and is about as dense... the materials that are coming out are changing the playfield - silicone is out...
