Intel Shrinks Transistor Size By 30%

pinkUZI writes "Intel will announce that it has crammed 500 million transistors on to a single memory chip, shrinking them in size by 30%. " The tech details are sadly lacking in the article - but I'm sure those will follow. Indeed, the Yahoo piece gives the details that "...has created a fully functional 70 megabit memory chip with transistor switches measuring just 35 nanometers."

    Yes, Moore is less - or smaller you could say.

    No, you pay for soda and coffee. A crying shame if you ask me.

    Cafeterias are pretty nice though. Best deal is the cup of soup and 6 inch baguette for $2.10. Next up is the pizza for 3.25-4.00 depending on type (they're about 10 inches across).

    Everything else hovers around $5.
