Verily long gone, eventually, all of us, but the success of good "EMI" design 
reflects in good "digital design" reflects in good "RF design" reflects in good 
"microwave design" reflects in "mm wave design" reflects in good "terrahertz 
design."

Optical computation, someday.

X-ray digital processors, eventually.

Next? Storing information in the spin-states of electrons.

Not unimaginable.
