On topic: In case anyone is interested here is the paper.

I haven't read it yet, I will do it later. It's quite exciting that DNA can be synthetically produced, it really will open up a massive new area of research in Biology. The potential of this advance is phoenominal.

It isn't that mind-boggling actually. DNA in it's conception is a very simple molecule, made of a combination of four different Nucleotides which itself is separated into three parts: Phosphorous link, Sugar and Puryn/Pyrimidic base. Even Lipids and Proteins are more complex in it's conception than DNA

What's trully marvelous about DNA is the fact that it can hold all the information to create every molecule for a functional living being to exist. Just by pairing three simple nucleotide pairs into a codon to create aminoacids Nature's wonderfully simple in it's conception.
