Cisco Breaks / Exceeds Moore's Law. The Moore's law about transistor density doubling every two years that we use to measure any and everything related to technology has been exceeded or broken by Cicsco according to the following table. So if you want to know why the ever used measuring stick (Moore's law) does not fit into the arena of Network technology, follow the link after the table. Cisco's Omar Sultan has an interesting article.
