Reading through the 1965 "Moore's Law" paper...

[On_Wisconsin]

...for a class about micro & nanotechnology. Crazy article beyond Moore's Law - plenty of predictions that seem to have turned out to be correct, such as:

"For example, memories built of integrated electronics may be distributed throughout the machine instead of being concentrated in a central unit."

Aka, memory modules, hard drives, etc. In 1965. Before the moon landing...heck even before Intel was founded. Interesting read by a smart guy:

Very good article! I graduated from the Electronics program at the local college and understand the principles. This article shed some new light on what things were happening in that time period. I can see that this man understood the future of the electronics industry.
