Wow, that's... well, I don't know exactly what that means, but it sounds impressive.


That's like 500 times the amount my laptop has.

Only if you have a graphics card with the power of a supercomputer.

It'd be like comparing what was in a 286 to the Core i7s that just came out that eat Crysis (again, the language) for breakfast with 12 gigs of RAM and a RADEON 4870 HD X2.

Basically, that i7 is absolute zilch in comparison to the limits of this.

Shiny new layout!

So basically we have another breakthrough from MIT that is generally useless until they can figure out how to mass produce it.

Still. Freaking, freaking impressive jump

Oh god. I want one. I have a feeling even when they do get here, I won't be able to afford one. After seeing that, I think I'll need a new keyboard first.

It was taking a nap. Now it's ready to go sprinting for a while.

The chips are made of carbon too, which means that once manufacturing techniques are perfected, the theoretical lower limit to price is lower than that of silicon.

I only wonder if anything could make full use of this.

I'll probably be stuck on a dual core 2.6ghz for a while to come...

Not a bad proc to be stuck on, tho. It's the video card and RAM that is more of a bottleneck these days.
