Re: Limitations in transistor design make it unlikely that processors will ever execute more than a few million instructions per second.... Shhhhhh! Don't tell my computer... It'll think it needn't work so hard! <VBG> And that was barely ten years ago - it's amazing how far the technology has come in such a short time. A tribute to AMD, Compaq/DEC, IBM, Intel, and Motorola and especially to those individuals who have done the actual processor designs and fabrication technology development. Regards, Dan
