Come on (void*),
There will be just as many, if not more constraints in a LEGO CAD system. With CAD, we're still limited by the number of bricks. If you use too many, your lego creation is going to bog down the computer.
I've worked for a year on both Unigraphics and Catia, and if you think that no mental planning goes into building something complicated using simple parts, then you are flat out wrong. The most fun of that job was planning just how to build up a complicated intake manifold from simple shapes.
At Michigan State University, they are theorizing about doubled Bucky Balls, connected with a nanotube (Like a Tylenol capsule). A charged particle sits inside, and determines a value based on which half of the bucky-capsule it sits. According to the poster on the wall, the RAM will use no power to store information, only power to read and change data.
I tried very hard to find a URL, for this, but the closest I can do is: http://www.cse.msu.edu It is the URL for the department where the poster is hanging on the wall.
It'd be nice for some space gasses to contain these since they would be nearly impossible to mass produce. Does anyone have any other ideas for resources that might be gained from the gas?

I love you too, oog!
Tech companies take note:
Don't do what netpliance did and leave holes in your marketing strategies that allow slashdotters to run you out of business.

I prefer ...Hacked I-openers capital ...slashdot karma capital ...low ICQ number capital ...and... plenty of Monty Python references
