Computer History Timeline: When It Will All End [Infographic]

The pace at which computers get updated is getting faster and faster. We are no longer impressed by the giant leaps humanity sometimes takes when it come to technology. Even though we continuously invent new ways to speed up, make smaller, and refine already existing technology, it looks like we are about to reach the end of processor speeds by the end of 2023. Some people don’t feel too worried about it, but should we be? The fact is that if everything stays on course, the microchips will get too small to hold the electrons that determine the processor speed. So what will happen when we have reached this limit? Will there be some kind of new technology that will take its place and further increase processor speeds?
