Obey Moore's law
Stanley Myers, relayed by MacCentral:
Semiconductor makers will soon need to find a new substrate to replace the pure silicon wafers used to make chips if they are to keep pace with expected advances in chip-making technology, according to the head of a prominent industry group.
It looks like someone misunderstood the meaning of law in Moore's law, interpreting it as:
a rule, usually made by a government, that is used to order the way in which a society behaves, or the whole system of such rules,
instead of:
a general rule which states what always happens when the same conditions exist.
I don't reckon there's a law, even in California, that forces semiconductor manufacturers to double the number of transistors on their chips every 18 months.
