Ooh, I like stuff like this. Second paragraph is repeated though...

This is what I personally thought was the most important... "However, they’re also much harder to work with, which is why no one’s pursued the tech until recently. They have to be aligned perfectly and metallic impurities, which naturally occur, must be completely removed. IBM has met those challenges, however, not only creating a 10,000-transistor-strong processor based on carbon nanotubes, but doing it with standard semiconductor techniques. That means, should today’s chipmakers end up switching to the technology, they wouldn’t have to spend billions creating new tools and production facilities." http://mashable.com/2012/10/28/ibm-carbon-nanotubes/

Yay, cool stuff and not suprising that it's coming from IBM. Not sure why but I really like them. 🙂

They're on a whole different level compared to others :P

Silicone-based microprocessors? So boobs and brains do go together.. Enticing but kinda scary..

I was reading about this yesterday. Hopefully it will be developed as a technology to the point where it's ready to take over the consumer CPU market by the time we hit the wall/limit of our current tech; likely before this decade is over.
