I am not a computer geek but, let's face it, this is very cool. The D-Wave 2X. NASA, Google reveal quantum computing leap that leaves traditional PCs in the dust | PCWorld
I'm just thankful I don't have any of the problems this computer is specifically geared to resolve. If I did - I'd have to live with the problem, because I couldn't possibly afford the computer. :smile: J.
