BiT-Tech have posted their report on day one of the Intel Developer Forum 2003. They question Intel CEO Craig Barrett on case modding.

A pen which remembers everything you write. The future of transistors. Quantum computing. DNA computing, and a credit card which also stores 5gb of data. These are some of the things you can read about on ZZZ #161.
