Moore's law, for how long?

1 pointsby schtogabout 17 years ago
how accurate is Moore's law lately?<p>i sometimes see people dismiss it without backing it up with numbers and generally when it fits their agenda.<p>the wikipedia-article on the other hand says it will continue for another decade.<p>will it?<p>and more important perhaps, when will it be trumped by other forms of computers like memristors ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memristor ) and quantum computers ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_computer ) ?
