Intel reinvents the transistor as a 3D Tri-Gate

I found the information about the size of the 3d transistors interesting. Does this mean that Intel is currently able to develop and manufacture nanotechnology devices (1 to 100 nanometres)?<p>For example, in the video the red blood cell was much larger than the 3d transistors. If Intel is able to develop transistors which are on the same scale as small theoretic nanotechnology devices, why aren't we getting access to a lot of nanotechnology applications yet?<p>For example these nanotechnology applications: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nanotechnology_applications" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nanotechnology_applicat...</a>

I can relate relate to the thickness of a hair but I can't relate to the size of a red blood cell so... If Mr Bohr ia an average sized 1.8 metres tall and is only a little smaller than the diameter of the hair after the first shrinkage that means that after the second shrinkage where he's 100 nm tall that the hair is about 1000 times wider than that. I calculate it would take him a good 20 minutes to walk past the end of the hair and in his world this chip is about the size of a pool table

This video is a serious contender to Microsoft's Windows 7 House Party ad and their Songsmith ad.<p>add.: why does everyone hanging around here have a stick or two up their wazoo? Not a soul will fail to notice how truly ridiculous this video is in the same lovely way the Songsmith ad is, but why is one not allowed to mention this in jest without getting slammed over it? Breathtaking... :)

You quoted funny as if I shouldn't find it funny, but when that shrink ray blew up...

Even Apple's hastily thrown together tour of their antenna facility was sexier than this. Wow.<p>I've never seen someone so awkward in front of a green screen before.
