Biocomputers: What are they?

 A biocomputer is a computer that uses DNA.  DNA has an uncanny ability to work with electrodes and metal, and is already used in, for example, microscopes.  It is predicted that using DNA rather than silicon may shrink the size of computers 1000 times.
Of course, no biocomputers currently exist.
