Intel’s Chip Shrinking Milestone"> Intel’s Chip Shrinking Milestone

Moore’s Law is holding steady at the house of Intel. The company announced a new technology breakthrough that can create a 70 megabit memory chip with switches measuring a scant 35 nanometers. That’s a 30% smaller than anything done to date.

Intel also pioneered a way to turn off unused sections of a memory chip in a power saving sleep mode. Then again, isn’t that what Bill does every day?! (And I’m darn proud that I did it first! -Bill)

BTW: Intel is heading for 22nm CPU design by 2011.
