Scoot - Re: "In 1968, he postulated Mead's law: As chips get smaller, they get faster, cheaper, cooler, and better. At that time, the exact opposite was the prevailing view. I'd say this is the father of Moore's law, well ahead of his time."

You clearly don't know what you are talking about.

"Moore's Law" was first put forward in an article in Electronics Magazine written by Gordon Moore in 1965 - 3 years BEFORE Mead did what you say he did.

Re: "What did Carver Mead have to do with the birth of Intel?"

Well, WHAT DID HE HAVE TO DO WITH ITC?
