The Discover Magazine article published 8 years ago...yes, it was truly impressive. Mind blowing, in fact. Perhaps if Apple uses Liquid Metal for the Iphone5, maybe the large scale manufacturing costs will drop and, as the article predicted...

(Johnson hopes that).... eventually the world’s engineers and architects will be able to choose from a panoply of amorphous metals and that the catastrophic shear failure problem will be solved for all of them. There will be cheap, abundant vitreous steel, and metalworking factories will be refitted to exploit the material’s boons. The first nation to achieve that happy state will boast greener, safer vehicles, better homes and buildings, more potent arms and sturdier defenses, more efficient industries, and even more successful golfers, batters, and tennis players. “I think we can get there,” Johnson says, admiring the jumble of trinkets before him. “I think all metals will eventually be vitreous. There is a fantastic future.”

What a vision, I must admit. Published 8 years ago! Whew!
