Quantum componentry in your computers - super computers on the way!

Received an email from a guy I know through our blogs and the shared blogs we follow regarding quantum computing. I posted awhile back on quantum cryptography.

If you haven’t seen some of what AtomChip Corporation is doing, you should check it out. I believe this is the future of componentry. Here are the specifications of one of the laptops they manufacture. Check out their website and look at the sizes of these components, ultra tiny!

SPECIFICATIONS:

1TB AtomChip® Quantum-Optical Non-Volatile RAM and storage / 6.8GHz AtomChip® CPU (AtomChip® Quantum® II processor) / 2TB Additional AtomChip® Quantum Storage / 12.1" WXGA 1280x800,6:10 TFT Glare Type LCD display with 1.3 Mega pixel camera / Integrated graphic controller [AtomChip® DVM (Dynamic Video Memory) /802.11a/802.11b/802.11g WLAN /Intel® PRO/Wireless 2100/2200BG/2915ABG network connection / Bluetoth (with antenna build-in), GPS (with Bluetooth antenna) / PCMCIA slot x 1 / IEEE1394A x 1 / USB2.0 x 3 / SVGA-out port / Optical Drive: DVD Super Multi / LAN (RJ45) / Modem(RJ11), / Stereo Earphone-out / Built-in two stereo speakers / Built-in Microphone / Interface Ports Front Side:4 in 1 Card reader [SDIO, SD, MS Pro, MS] / Application Launch Key: E-mail,Internet, Capture, WLAN / Pointer: Synaptics touchpad with 4 way scrolling button / Rechargeable Li-Ion battery / Windows XP Professional and Linux / Voice Command / PROMT-Translator (8 languages) / AC Adapter / BOSE Headphone Music System with noise Canceling / Dimensions: 320(W)x242(D)x22(H)mm/28mm (front/back) /Weight around 4.18lb (1900g) when fully equipped.

You buy me one and I'll buy you one :)

I just bought my wife a brand new car last week for less money than that.

thi is no fake,ALEX! ... visit www.atomchip.com and see how many prices they have allready won ... but at that selling price not to many ppl will be able to afford this... at least not for the moment ... but they have cheaper products like the Ultra-Portable Wireless NoteBook "SG111", but I think when the technology will further evolve we'll get this baby (SG220-2) much cheaper ... I'll wait till it will be like 3-4000$ or smthing ... hehe ...
I just hope it will be soon ... I don't want to wait to much!
