Answer» Future microchips may have only one type of component, capable of rewiring itself to do different jobs. Researchers from Northwestern University in the US have developed a material that can radically CHANGE its electronic properties.

If a computer had to rewire itself every time a user wanted it to execute a different function, don't you think that it might just take longer to execute said function?
