IBM scientists are working on a new solid-state memory technology that aims to combine the best attributes of flash, like having no moving parts, and the low cost of hard drives for an inexpensive form of nonvolatile memory that will be stable and durable.
It nanotechnology that stores information in thousands of atoms in magnetic nanowires. Electrical charge causes data to move swiftly along a U-shaped pipe (hence the name "racetrack") that allows 16 bits of data to be read or written trough a single transistor in less than a nanosecond, without moving the atoms. Cells don’t wear out like the flash memory or magnetic pets, and the capacities will even exceed that of the magnetic disk. So, more capacitive, cheaper, longer life and even less power demand, but few years of wait to be commercialized. Click the title to see it on YouTube.

We can hardly catch up with this, and the nanotechnology is sort of magic. But, how is that ? the electrons have to travel to make current, or esle will not be sensed
I am afraid you will have to answer this question since your name is Nano ! how do you like that ?
Who cares about nano and micro, get real and post the right stuff, dont you have pictures and true life stories?
This is unfair; you hide your name and want others to unhide their whole? What you see is the public side of my life; these are my pictures and stories and the web is full of the stuff you are urging me to post. Better yet, have your won blog and stuff it with yours
