IT researchers have questioned how long Moore's Law can stand true. They say that without the development of new technologies, like light or quantum computers, computing speeds cannot continue to double every two years. But, Dr Stuart Parkin, an experimental physicist at IBM in San Jose, California, shows Graham Phillips his solid state chips that are approximately a million times faster than disc drives - using conventional electronics!
