Is the stock just Microsoft ?
*Smaller than other optical transistors, yet they are still way bigger than current tech

Obligatory *But can it run Crysis?*
Old tech. Optical/laser based tech to replace existing semiconductor based switches (transistor).
That sounds like a lot.
Isn’t heat and energy cost/carbon footprint the main problem?
Okay, that’s fast and wide, but do we have memory to feed that much data that quick?
