It's easy to misposition carbon nanotubes and their metallic nature creates difficulties. "You just have to keep chipping away at it," said Shulaker, who grew the devices in a Stanford nano lab and showed results to ISSCC attendees (below).

Did you see something cool at ISSCC I missed? Please chime in.
Or have a question about something you missed. I have access to all the foils--oh boy!

Nanotubes seemed out of place. Just like ASML's EUV, it's not even a device technology. How did these topics get in?

Please, these slide shows are a complete PITA. They violate all common sense useability rules.
Stopping on page 2.

Agreed.
Worst feature of EE, by far.
What's the point, guys? Maybe if we see your perspective, it will help.

My rationale is I am helping any EE who could not be at ISSCC (one of the leading chip design conferences in the world) a chance to see and learn a bit about some of what went on there, including a look at some of the foils presented.
But I understand it may not be everyone's cup of tea.
If there's something specific you would like in event coverage or coverage of any sort, please let me know.

Rick, the coverage is fine. Good job. But the slide show format sucks. The effort/reward ratio is about equivalent to running around the block for an egg cup full of beer.
