science : next generation.

hey. was spending too much time online today. so on the bbc you'll see that ibm have managed to do the etching on the silicon to about 20nm.. well anyway 3x better than what we have now. i could say what that all means but as far as i understand it, just means faster processors, maybe more memory in the same space.. you know.. progress progress progress (ie; cheaper smaller mp3 players, better 3d and video for mobile phones..)
and also (separate topic).
they (sorry, the police/investigators at crime scenes) can figure out what your last name from your dna (so long as you have the last name of your father), and that will help them narrow down who done it.
So if your name's smith, this won't affect your life in the slightest.
