Looks very promising

And the R&D on this will cost ????

And mass manufacturing will cost ????

doesn't matter... companies will pay for it if we have the need for speed. why do u think fab facilities cost billions for the latest and greatest? do u think there is no R&D for those? Even at 10 times the speed, i guarantee you intel would invest billions into it.

Another genius who didn't bother to read the article.

...the real questions are how practical is it to make graphene chips, and how soon can they be made? The answer is probably going to surprise you. Graphene has already been proven to be usable in current chip manufacturing processes with only minimal retooling needed. In fact, IBM has already created working 30GHz test devices using graphene transistors. In other words, graphene could begin making its way into computers as early as 2012 to 2015, and almost certainly by 2020.

Would you expect it to be free?
