Nah... - why does "return" eject the card? - You would more likely get a card as a return. Because that's basically what the computer did back then - sort cards.

RRAM was there first, and it will previal. Lets just forget about this "memristor" PR-nonesense. HP did as well. (Their activities seem to be dead)

After closing all of the big legacy industry research Labs, at the end of the Millennium, there seems to be some Kind of delayed second wave right now. Is this really a discussion worth having? How is it different from the last one?

No, simply no. ICs are made of monocrystalline silicon, not polysilicon. There have been massive efforts to understand how to make it cleaner (internal gettering) and how to get wafer mechanics under control (Nitrogen doping). That does not

Uhm no, absolutely not. The basic operational principle remained the same, but absolutely everything has been changed many times over. Trillions of dollars were invested to make it happen. The only constant is probably that it is still made
