" That was my thought too, if it's so much better than the copper just ditch the copper."

I was going to write the same thing!

Is it maybe that the graphene is an insulator to copper, or to put it another way: you could use graphene for the interconnects, but then you'd need something (say copper) as the insulator! (But even then, why not some non-metal insulator?)

Baaaah. I'm confused!
