Disordered Assemblies: "Jim Tour, of Rice University says 'Our research shows that ordered precision isn't a prerequisite for computing. It is possible to make memory circuits out of disordered systems.' The article on www.e4engineering.com says the team has made 'NanoCells', self assembled devices made from gold nanowires and organic conductive molecules. These NanoCells are the first devices of their kind to be made into working microelectronic devices, apparently.' Yep. Let an untold number of machines try to create NanoCells, and statistics says you'll find the most efficient kind. "
