I think currently that's the only path remaining, they can't shrink any further and they can't increase the clock much either...

I think currently that's the only path remaining, they can't shrink any further and they can't increase the clock much either...A couple of years ago, the Physics guys at UNSW made a single atom current switch prototype. That is a big "shrinking". The problem is that they could control it only below 1 degree Kelvin or something like that... not exactly the typical living room temperature.

That's not a problem. They could just operate servers in the data centers and we could rent processing power. Then just connect in via our nationwide gigabit NBN fiber.....errrr....
