Moore's Law Staying Strong Through 30nm 199

Posted by Hemos on Monday February 20, 2006 @10:29AM from the there's-plenty-of-room-at-the-bottom dept.

jeffsenter writes "The NYTimes has the story on IBM with JSR Micro advancing photolithograhy research to allow 30nm chips. Good news for Intel, AMD, Moore's Law and overclockers. The IBM researchers' technology advance allows for the same deep ultraviolet rays used to make chips today to be used at 30nm. Intel's newest CPUs are manufactured at 65nm and present technology tapped out soon after that. This buys Moore's Law a few more years."

As capacity increases, new yardsticks are required. Eventually it'll go from number of songs to hours of porn, then hours of HD porn, then hours of full sensory VR porn experience, hours of holodeck recording and finally number of downloaded human personality matrices... of porn stars.
You can trust me on this. I have access to that interweb thing.

Yes. Intel will release the new Singularity chip some time around 2016.

AMD fanboys will promptly inform everyone that it sucks.

Shouldnt it be Moore's Theory, or Moore's Observation?

Yeah, Moore or less :)
