Well.
HP says they are in development of a processing doo-dad that will revolutionize computers as we know them.
They call it 'The Machine' at the moment.
Based on photonics and memristors I read it will handle processing ~640 terrabytes of data in a billionth of a second.
That's a lot ..and that's fast.
They also said it will be scalable by size .. ie: a cell phone would be able to run with figures of ~60 terrabytes of data.
Hmm .. does that mean your cell phone will store your entire life of emails? F'rinstance?
They estimate first release before this decade is out.
What this means - no more texture map limits in a game, no more polygon limits, pixel resolution - too the MOON, Alice!
It will push the display technology to use the capability ..
..ie: I want my Holodeck!!
-just sayin (tm Pasha)
We live in exciting times.

Bet its GPU will still overheat and kill its video display

And it runs on linux :noid

Too easy.. engineers and inventors are building and strengthening better and better systems.. that being said.. some of these guys are just superstar's and are really rocketing over the moon with this stuff.. and should be given the respect and due dillgence they deserve.. :salute (you know what i mean, to all the naysayers out there..)

PC gaming is dead too. Everything (cable box, TV, gaming, social media, microwave oven, blender, toliet, etc) is going to be on the XBOX TEN! :old:

I hope that there won't be any XBOX anymore when that happens. If the world hasn't still found competition for MS at that point we're doomed.

I poo on the Xbox!

While it is a planned future enhancement, the XBOX ONE does not yet have toliet capabilities. Soooo....eww. :lol

In this picture, I am working on hooking up my Flightstick. I'm hooking it into what I call my "Latrobe compensator," which is still under development.
