HP Labs Creates Densest Memory Chips To Date

Ruger writes "CRN has this article about memory circuits 10 times more dense than today's silicon chips. R. Stanley Williams, director of Quantum Science Research at HP Labs said the high-density memory his team created fits inside a square micron. That's so small that 1,000 of the circuits could fit on the end of a strand of human hair."

Hmmm. The article appears to be missing

Density is misleading . . .

[Anonymous Coward]

Back in the good old U.S.S.R., workers in the factories were encouraged to make heavy/dense electrical engines. The workers simply began adding weights to the motors, not actually increasing their horsepower or anything, and as a result, the U.S.S.R. made some of the heaviest engines in the world. Now, I doubt that's what's happening here (and the use of "dense" may not have anything to do with these types of chips), but I figured you'd appreciate the little story I had, courtesy of my Economics book.
