Нанотехнологии

Возможности совершенствования современных компьютеров очень велики (выше я говорил о том, что мы тратим в 1010 раз больше энергии, чем это требуется теоретически!), так что я могу лишь призвать разработчиков начать следующий этап развития, который позволит обеспечить экспоненциальный рост скорости и эффективности.

Благодарю за внимание!
