Computer Chips Seem Poised to Shrink Again

Researchers are reporting that they can overcome a barrier to the continued rapid miniaturization of computer memory.

There are several limiting conditions that have nothing to do with local hardware.

There is the jelly ware, me, and the pipe size. If this will replace the hard drive with a non-moving system, it will be revolutionary. Some of us use thumb drives for this but they have limited cyclic lives. At this time a raid system (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID ) is the industry standard.
