Brian, Re: Their ideal is to essentially have a chip which has wiring that can be reprogrammed for different tasks by software, instead of having an instruction set embedded. Kind of vague what he's talking about there. I think we should go right to those quantum computers...atomic level gates and a supercomputer in a tablespoon of water. Did one of those articles surface on AMAT? usatoday.com These far out ideas come and go, some might catch on. Silicon based logic and computers look good until, what 2012 or thereabouts? Moore said it last year, as I recall, and all the talk about quantum computing recently roughly uses that timeframe, but who knows. Tony
