Message-ID: <2112@tekig.UUCP> Date: Mon, 18-Jun-84 16:13:23 EDT Article-I.D.: tekig.2112 Posted: Mon Jun 18 16:13:23 1984 Date-Received: Thu, 21-Jun-84 01:56:25 EDT Organization: Tektronix, Beaverton OR Lines: 11 The MOS nerds with whom I associate are always bouncing up and down over 2 micron gate lengths and etc., while I notice that 1 micron (and smaller?) head gaps have been present in tape heads for many years.
