This is disgusting! for everyone that has researched and followed Tesla you will understand exactly where my disgust fits in with this article. Intel are claiming this as their own. I am outraged!

Once again this is nothing new. In 1899 at Colorado Springs Nikola Tesla transmitted 100 million volts of high-frequency electric power wirelessly over a distance of 26 miles at which he lit up a bank of 200 light bulbs and ran one electric motor!

This is well documented.

The number of 100 million volts is patently bogus. Do you have any idea that 100 MV will do? I worked high voltage generators up to 1MV.

Now, back to Intel's claim -- something is not right there. They say they are using magnetic field and not electric. However, Maxwell's equations are telling us that when you have a varying magnetic field, you'll also get a varying electric field. That's how electric generators work, for example.
