that's why many many Physics research labs are working on superconductors. you get the right mix to superconductor at room temperature, or a commonly achievable temperature, and your laughing.

currently they need to bathe most in liquid nitrogen to get it to super-conduct.

but that's something completely off topic...

NIKx, i see no real reason WHY a vacuum could not be created and then sealed inside of another vacuum. however i am only an A-level physics student, and i'm the first to say i don't know everything.

however i can't really see a reason TO have two vacuums, one inside the other...

138K? That's a lot higher than I thought.

That's about...-210 degrees F, or -134.4 Celsuis.

Cold...

But, theoretically, if one could get a processor to superconduct, it would have infinite clock speed, held back by the speed of light and the time it takes a transistor to change.

haha and maybe then we would start to see games that are actually life-like in graphics quality, unlike all those before that have claimed to be... and simply arn't.

There is work being done on a ray-tracing processor unit that should blow the current GPUs out of the water in terms of performance.

The August issue of Scientific American has an article on it. I can't find the issue at the moment, or I'd tell you specifically who's building it.

well I like reading those science magazines so I might pick it up.
