Moores law is bettered by Gates' Law of Code Bloat :-)
ATTENTION Steve Jobs - Opportunity is knocking!! People want responsive computers. My first APPLE laptop had an instant on and instant off capability. Yes, that's right, I woke it up and could be typing in Word in 1 second!! Not...5..10...30...60 seconds. PLEASE!!!! What the hell takes 5 minutes or more to boot??? Why in hell does my computer slow down while opening a web page??? Come on guys!! You can do other things while waiting for data!! It's insane that we can do real-time video but these devices are SO SLUGGISH interacting with people!! Makes no sense... BUT -> Steve, if you are listening... here is your big chance to KNOCK OUT MICROSOFT! Just make a computer OS that "feels snappy" isn't sluggish responding to people!! It's NOT THAT HARD!!
Moore's Law doesn't say anything about computer chips doubling in speed every 1-2 years. You guys need to hire a real geek to write these stories.
