A team of Stanford engineers has built a basic computer using carbon nanotubes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_nanotube) (CNTs) — a semiconductor material with the potential to launch a new generation of smaller electronic devices that run faster, while using less energy, than those made from silicon chips.

Have you ordered one?  :)

I'm fabricating some nanotubes in my garden shed at this very moment.

Perhaps you should consider using the SheddyEric identity.  ;D

Are you going to 'to seed the growth of the graphene on a atomic structure of a metal substrate' ?  ;D

I'm using a new process which uses stale bread as the substrate.

Remember to exclude any dust .  ;)
