Here's a link that avello500 posted in one of his threads that got me thinking.

What I'm thinking about is how long do you al think it will befor quantum computing is here with us?

I know that are developments comming from all directions at the moment.

NRAM for example might only be a short step away:

There are problems to be solved but the future of computing is certainly going to be an interesting one.

Yes, and even if we have 20 GHz (or more) computers, it's still going to be equipped with TCPA.

That one device they used to transport photons over a year ago, couldn't something like that be used to make super fast computers?

Also found this cool link, the FAQ section has Quantum Computing tutorials
