Ibexx, I think you are referring to some work on organic light emitting diodes, Richard was looking for H-P work of two states organic molecules. Of course, from that experiment to devices we have a long way, a simple problem, if each "switch is one molecule with what do we "write and read" these states, you will need "monomolecular strands" (by the way not exactly a dream since some carbon nanotubes have these attributes, but still a long way from reality).

Ibexx, thanks. What I am talking about is a venture by Hewlitt Packard and a western University. The chip, supposed to be released late next year, is the size of a grain of salt, a billion times the capacity of a Pentium chip, and "grown" organically, before frozen, crystallized and then programmed. It was announced on CNN and MSNBC about 10 days ago. Very interesting if more comes of it...
