The computer of the future?

[zz_tophat]

forget future computers that may never exist.

The real mind-blowing future stuff is carbon nano tubes (read up on it, it will blow your mind all over the loving keyboard).

Hopefully they'll come up with a better internet before then :s

Carbon Nanotubes and Quantum Theory based computers have nothing to do with each other... :/

Carbon Nanotubes and Quantum Theory based computers have nothing to do with each other... :/

Two points:

1. Topic about future stuff

2. Wrong, because

Most recently, collaborating American and Chinese researchers at Duke University and Peking University announced a new CVD recipe involving a combination of ethanol and methanol gases and quartz substrates resulting in horizontally aligned arrays of 95-98% semiconducting nanotubes. This is considered a large step towards the ultimate goal of producing perfectly aligned, 100% semiconducting carbon nanotubes for mass production of electronic devices.[68]

Nanotubes are the future of computing.


EDIT: that translates as: A computer that produces almost no heat and uses as much power as a AA battery.

Alright, I stand corrected in saying they have nothing to do with each other. But still, they are different technologies, and someday may be combined to create a computer or device like no other.

Yeah, Silicon doesn't go much further than we already are. As soon as some scientist makes molecular scale logic gates, then stuff gets real.
