Nano-transistor breakthrough to offer billion times faster computer (http://www.smh.com.au/technology/sci-tech/nanotransistor-breakthrough-to-offer-billion-times-faster-computer-20120220-1thqk.html)

Yet another little ozzie breakthru, we are fast becoming a nation whose technology is at the leading fringe of development. We have given the world many innovations but entirely new computer technology can take us where the computer took the US in the twentieth century, who said we are just a hole in the ground?

Just a small list of our scientific firsts

Hope it stays in the right hands. I've seen some pretty impressive application of nano-technology that could easily be applicable in military devices.

Tom from my observation they find a military application for everything
