Yep, I would still be working in a warehouse pushing boxes out the door.

I think Kilby only regretted that folks had peverted his invention by creating musical greeting cards and musical ties...

However, I just applied for a Passport which now have chips in them. Probably for a while now, but new to me.


Not just our comps and phones, mp3 players... Think about how many gadgets we own with chips.... nearly every mechanical/electrical device has a chip in it.
