Comment on At what size of transistor does semiconductor manufacturing become practical for independent manufacture?

which I found rather neat

I concur, what a great post. Special software for the layout? Please! I’ve got a photoshop license, it’ll have to do.

The rest of us get our calculators at staples, this guy buys the components at the chemical supply store.

And once small-scale semiconductor manufacturing becomes easier and more feasible, we will have "OpenChipCAD" or something like that.

  We’ve had open-source chip design software since the 1980s. Magic VLSI, for example. There are quite a few OSS tools for various parts of the chip design process.
