"On a bank of the Mohawk River, a windowless industrial building of corrugated steel hides something that could make floor lamps, bedside lamps, wall sconces and nearly every other household lamp obsolete."

    This is so cool. I did recently also find out about the printing industry is now able to print solar panels. We live in the most interesting age.

    " In the next step, GE plans to build a larger machine that can print panels several feet wide. Its output could be sold commercially as early as 2010, Duggal said, but he acknowledged that's a "very aggressive" goal.

    Since the production runs will be small by then, the prices won't be accessible to the average consumer. "

    That's so much crap. This is an amazing technology that could change interiors as we know them. Keeping it out of the hands of consumers is counter-productive.
