Too bad the author didn't substantiate his claims that analog computing will make a comeback.
I found this article [0] with a real world application, but no performance comparison to a digital computer. I also take issue with the claim that a transistor has infinite possible states, and that we're ignoring most of them. This doesn't take into account real world limitations of components' precision and noise.
