Look out girls... Better hide your brains... Eli's a' comin':

Once again... The Zombies have gathered for another of their ever popular Pitty Parties.

Mayhaps someone should sit these people down and explain to them that "demand for bits" is not the equivalent of "demand for ever lower densities." The first is generated by customers. But the second is just a delusion concocted from the desire of insane IC makers to be the last Living-Dead Fab standing.

The fact that L'Intel and its army of demon EEs from Racoon City have infected the world with the delusion that the two concepts are equivalent is not surprising. After all... "self-delusion" is what people do. But the fact that this particular sickness is strong enough to force gabillions down the rat hole of wasted R&D is simply depressing.

This product is semi-moronic and should be shoved up some CEO's butt:

Perhaps one of our great American salesmen will wake up one day and discover that real money can be made by selling a fab Zombie on the idea that commodity consumer devices are small enough... and the words: "demand for bits" can often mean simply a "demand for more better bits" instead of automatically reaching for the gabillion dollar die squeezer.
