"N" is for nanotechnology, "HP" is for hype.
For any of you who've been watching the US Open, and maybe some other stuff, you've seen a lot of these HP ads for nanotechnology and it's limitless possibilities, like a tiny computer that can hold all the worlds books. That's great. But why Hewlitt-Packard? So they're working on nanotechnology, which is, by the way, all within one one-thousandth the width of a human hair. What they really mean is, each component is that size, but they need millions and billions, and probably trillions of those. So it's still a much tinier computer, but it's not quite what they claim. And you know what nanotechnology can do now? Scientists can make an on/off switch that they can operate, which doesn't do anything, it just holds one of two positions. Hurrah. They say all these things that are possible, yet HP has no more idea how to do them than anyone else. So good for them, keep up the good work, but tell us about stuff you have, not stuff that may be possible within the next twenty years.
