IBM achieves storage memory breakthrough

IBM research centre mustn't be ignored. I heard first time in late 1980s:
The "giant magnetoresistive" (GMR) effect was discovered
Now virtually every hard drive >20GB has magnetoresistive heads. It was a giean leap in storage technology. Lets hope that new 'flash'-like devices come up much quicker.
