Moore's Law Staying Strong Through 30nm

jeffsenter writes "The NYTimes has the story on IBM with JSR Micro advancing photolithograhy research to allow 30nm chips. Good news for Intel, AMD, Moore's Law and overclockers. The IBM researchers' technology advance allows for the same deep ultraviolet rays used to make chips today to be used at 30nm. Intel's newest CPUs are manufactured at 65nm and present technology tapped out soon after that. This buys Moore's Law a few more years."

Best points made so far. MOD PARENT UP!

Please stop mentioning Moore's Law

FFS, can you drop it, it is like your dad at a disco trying to fit in - people say it like they are part of an in-crowd.

People have taken Moore's law out of context and now use it as an expression for anything that improves.

It has been changed 3 times, and get this:

It is a a nonspeculative statement about past performance, the speculative aspect was initially for 10 years, and didn't even hold until then.

can you please fuck off and never mention it again, look at any twat hack asshole writer (like those on zdnet) and all they can do is fapp themselves silly talking about how moores law might actually be the thing that is causing the speed of light to slow -

yes because they are that stupid

I hope people realise that by saying it they sound like a bearded 50 year old it geek.

*looks around* oh ffs.
