Limits on copper wire are about 15 Gigahertz. Computers are already working at 3 Gigahertz. In order to plan for the processor of 2015, Intel is now making plans for and building experimental IC that use optical busses to replace copper. Connection of 10 inches and less will require optics. By 2015, processors should be running in the 20 gigahertz range.
