Magnetic memory makes logic Magnetic memory will soon put an end to the daily annoyance of waiting while your computer boots up from its hard disk. These chips that hold data when the power is off might also be capable of a lot more. Adding a few extra wires to each memory cell could turn the chips into efficient computer processors. |
