World's First Programmable Nanoprocessor
Announced by a team of researchers from Harvard University ...
...and it's being described as nothing short of a "quantum jump forward in the complexity and function of circuits built from the bottom up."... ... a chip that's just 960 micrometers (or less than 1 millimeter) square ... Story here That is just awesome!  The groundbreaking prototype computer system, described in a paper appearing today in the journal Nature, represents a significant step forward in the complexity of computer circuits that can be assembled from synthesized nanometer-scale components. This work represents a quantum jump forward in the complexity and function of circuits built from the bottom up, and thus demonstrates that this bottom-up paradigm, which is distinct from the way commercial circuits are built today, can yield nanoprocessors and other integrated systems of the future...

Re: World's First Programmable Nanoprocessor
That is one of the most amazing advancements in computer miniturization in my lifetime, now I am waiting for the Peripherals to be shrunk down.
