I read about a technology that will most probably change the way we live, again! This technology is a substance called graphene that has been said to be "200 times stronger than steel" and "conduct electricity better than any material known to man. The discoverers of graphene, Konstantin Novoselow and Andre Geim, won the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize. Graphene will eventually replace silicon as main transistors, IBM computers has created a whopping 100GHz graphene transistor and plans on completing a 1THz transistor soon.
This is quite amazing, as my current computer runs on a measly 2.5 GHz.

What are your thoughts? Any skeptical oppositions?
