IBM, Georgia Tech Break Silicon Speed Record

“IBM and the Georgia Institute of Technology announced today that their researchers have demonstrated the first silicon-based chip capable of operating at frequencies above 500 GHz – 500 billion cycles per second – by cryogenically ‘freezing’ the chip to 451 degrees below zero Fahrenheit (4.5 Kelvins).” Now that’s what I’d like to see in the new PowerBook. Oh, wait.
