All I say is WOW! I mean, this was announced just after a company called D-Wave is about to demonstrate the world first working quantum computer.

A 16 qubits computer, known as Orion will be demonstrated this Tuesday by the designers D-Wave.

D-Wave will demonstrate two applications for its quantum computer remotely on a machine at its headquarters in British Columbia. The first is a pattern-matching problem derived from molecular databases, while the second will tackle assigning seats to people under constraints, wedding reception style. Its speed at 16 qubits should be roughly similar to standard computers.

Quantum computer are the next generation computers. The power of a quantum computer is tremendous compared to todays binary computers and excellent for encryption and decryption.
Just think, if a 16 quabit computer is more or less equlavent to todays standard PC, imagine 1000 quabit computer, which by the way is set to be constructed around 2008.

D-Wave's prototype has only 16 qubits, but systems with hundreds of qubits would be able to process more inputs than there are atoms in the universe.
