What kind of New Technology that would replace Silicon Chips?

Question

just any type of technology that would change the silicon to something more advance...

Answer 1

Gallium based semi-conductor right now is too expensive to deploy.

If you want completely out of the left field, I'd go for optical processing.

Answer 2

The Koreans have developed a 3D (multiple layered) silicon chip that they are working on bringing to the market. It is supposed to be able to increase the clockspeed as much as 10X as the current single layer chip that is currently in use. As soon as they get the cooling system cheap enough for the market, they plan to launch. Rumor is that they expect to have all of the kinks worked out by early 2009.

When you are ready to buy a new system, go to www.stupidcheapcomputers.net. I buy all of my stuff from them, and everything is Vista ready.

Microsoft is about to release its latest operating system, Vista, in January. It’s going to make all of these “bargain” computers nothing but JUNK as soon as it’s released. The reason that you are seeing so many cheap systems on the market right now is because a lot of them CAN’T RUN Vista and the merchants are trying to dump them as hard and fast as they can before Vista shows up and everyone learns what a piece of crap they were sold for $500 (or whatever).

Anyway, I bought a complete, new system from stupidcheapcomputers.net with a warranty for LESS than it would cost me to build it myself or order a custom one from the manufacturer. You can use my frequent buyer code: ATX926. That will get an additional 10% discount at checkout.

I have NEVER had any problems with anything that they have sold me and their customer service is outstanding. Those guys blow my mind.

Good luck!

Answer 3

Nothing at this point. Biological components are being tested but nothing will be comertial for a while to come.

Answer 4

GaAs- Gallium Arsenide cause it is faster and comsumes lesser power.
