Intel plans $1500 10GHz PC

[bonkers325]

Intel has built what it claims is the world's smallest and fastest CMOS transistor. The company says that within the next five to ten years (nice accurate bit of futurology there) it will be able to build microprocessors containing more than 400 million transistors, running at 10GHz and operating at less than 1V.

Intel boffins will disclose more details later today at the International Electron Devices Meeting in San Francisco.

Five to 10 years...hmmm, the speed is possible but the price might not be realistic.

I wonder what's the name of the cpu at that time, Pentium 7, maybe?

Whats so special about that article? Who would have thought we could get a 1GHz PC now for $1500 back in 95?

It'll suck compared to the 30ghz from AMD due in 10-20 years though.
