Kent's Tech stuff

Intel microprocessor technology emerging!

Intel has created a research prototype of the worlds first silicon-based optical data connection with integrated lasers. This new link, can move up to 50 gigabits per second. This is about as much data contained in an entire HD movie. With this new technology, information within computers and other electronic devices will be transferred using lasers rather than a physical link. "The kind of change this speed increase could cause could exceed our collective imaginations. It effectively could make the location of most everything in the technology space irrelevant,"said Rob Enderle, principal with the Enderle Group. "It suggests a future," explained Enderle, "where we could have live streamed HD images from around the world. It suggests affordable HD telepresence where talking to someone thousands of miles away is no harder than looking through a window. You could have the best doctor, even if that doctor is on a different continent," Enderle mused.This could be our low cost answer to the future of computing technology!

Cheers!
