Re:Moore's law will live on, once again abridged (Score 1)

The technology to continue Moore's law is already here. Clustering and SMP is the new revolutionary technologies. When we finally reach theoretical maximums that we can't get around, well just double the humber of proccessors a machine can hold every 18 months. Also, if intel if making the same chips for more than two years, it will find ways to make them cheaper. Stagination in one regard will only lead to proliferation in others. Also, redesigning chip architectures will make faster chips.

Read the article (or do three years of compsci)!

Moore's Law does not specifically have anything to do with processor speed, it actually refers to the observation (guess?) Moore made in the mid sixties that transistor density would double every twelve months (later revised to eighteen months.)
