QuoteLike Tandy 1000's! ^___^ The grandpappy of Athlon 64 and Core 2 PCs! (Yeah, my Tandy has Intel 8088, 4.7MHz)


Now you mention HVDs. What if you use X-ray laser to actually write and read them? That's a lot of data. Givin' you a idea how big the storage would it be:
a Blu-ray Disc written by 7-nanometer X-ray laser would be able to store up to - yes... - 6 Terabytes.

So, a HVD using 405nm laser would be able to hold 1 TB,
if you switch the laser with 7nm one, you would be able to... possibly... hold 152 Terabytes.

Imagine this. '_______'

That's pretty much the concept of the whole 3-d storage, isn't it?
YOU COULD HAVE PREVENTED THIS

Dr. Mario

Yes. (but the X-ray Holographic storage is enough to scare those IBM scientists, Seagate included.)
;025 Now, Bowser... What can I do with you...

Smokey

It doesn't scare the scientists, it scares the Financial Department, cuz that sort of stuff is a good way to loose tens of thousands of dollars...

Dr. Mario

Yes. And, making the X-ray laser diode is also very difficult (and, if done the metal mixture wrong, it's a waste of money.)
;025 Now, Bowser... What can I do with you...

Smokey

Well scientists don't loose money on bodged experiments, they just claim that "they now have aquired valuable knowledge otherwise impossible to aquire"...:D

Dr. Mario

Yeaaa. What a waste of mind. (And it would be easier to share than just proclaiming it "mine! mine!" - but oh well, they overuse the patent systems. It was also why GPL / GNU was introduced, for some reason.)

O_O...
Wow, nice... ;010

NOW YOU'RE THINKING WITH QUANTUMS
YOU COULD HAVE PREVENTED THIS

Smokey

Well, this topic has sure died off...
Maybe that's because quantum physics/mechanics is a more active science?

>_>

Well, not exactly quantums, but the Memristors are something in the same area of usage...
YOU COULD HAVE PREVENTED THIS

Smokey

This is interesting...
This may lead to non-moving non-volatile memory, and if it will eliminate, sorry succeed the DVD/BR along with the HDD, the only moving parts in a PC will be the fans (and rats, roaches, flies etc.)... :D

@Smokey: Don't forget the Tuxen!


I think the biggest issue with Quantum computing would be to learn completely new paradigms in programming. I read something about that topic in a German magazine but my memory is letting me down on what these were.

Smokey

Oh, gawd, yeah... Normal programming logic would fail miserably in that field.....

*thinks*

I dont know if i would like that...
