This reminds me of the High-tech bubble days in Israel, people would become millionaires just from ideas, without anything working; companies traded in the stock market could multiply their net worth hundreds of times overnight and still not sell a thing.

I'm a nuclear reactor cooling system programmer, if you see me running, it's probably already too late.

"We don't rule out licensing our technology to others," Sariel said. "We are looking at a virtual production line where production is done by others and we provide testing equipment."
I really hope both R&D and manufacturing stay inside the country despite western world manpower costs and socialist taxes.

Reminded me of my joke a year and over ago here about how the PC case will turn into a light show!

"Ouch, my eyes!"

Here at the university, my ECE professor gave us a tour of their optical computing lab. They were making optical packet switches for networks. One optical packet switch had a throughput of 160 gbps with a latency of 3.1 ns. It's peak rated latency was 2 ns.
