NANOTECHNOLOGY
What is Nanotechnology?
Computers reproduce information at almost no cost.
A push is well underway to invent devices that manufacture at almost no cost, by treating atoms discretely, like computers treat bits of information. This would allow automatic construction of consumer goods without traditional labor, like a Xerox machine produces unlimited copies without a human retyping the original information.
Electronics is fueled by miniaturization. Working smaller has led to the tools capable of manipulating individual

What if the same were to happen in the world of matter? The production cost of a ton of terabyte RAM chips would be about the same as the production cost of steel. Design costs would matter, production costs wouldn't.
