Zeev, I think that actually, things in this respect (Moore law) are going to get worse rather than better. Yet another person claiming the death of Moore's Law? Did you read IBM's latest breakthough of chip design on SiGe, where signals travel not only horizontally but vertically? Even using existing technology, IBM hopes to have a 210Ghz chip in a few years. That alone will keep Moore's Law intact for many years, even assuming no more breakthroughs for the forseeable future, since it is a 116 fold improvement over todays fastest Intel Pentium(1.8Ghz). BK
