6.8GHz 1TB RAM and 2TB HDD Laptop? 687
Stuk writes "Research & development company AtomChip have announced a new 6.8GHz 1TB RAM and 2TB HDD laptop, which is "coming soon". Apparently it does not use a hard disc, instead it is based on "solid state AtomChip® optoelectronics". A new "non-volatile Quantum-Optical" type of RAM is used. Other features include voice commands, "Num Lock mode, Caps Lock mode, Scroll Lock mode". They're spoiling us." If Nintendogs has taught me anything, it's that voice recognition is awesome and should be used for everything. *cough*. And also to be skeptical of this many buzzwords.

Of course, maybe by "TB" they don't mean tera-byte, but instead 'tiny-byte', a brand new term meaning really, really freaking small.

Oh, I wouldn't say that. I see Windows running on it and the one thing I have learned over the years is that Windows can suck the power out of anything.
For every advance in processor, disk and memory technology, a new release of Windows follows which ties more of it up. Heck when this thing starts up Windows probably fills up half the available memory (like it does on my 1.25GB desktop system) with DLLs and whatnot, whatever it can't find on the system disk it'll probably create just to meet expectations.
I shudder to think what Longhorn will demand of systems for minimum hardware.

"The new AtomChip® Quantum® II processor with 256MB on-board memory has a high speed with very low consumption of electrical energy."
It uses very little elecrical energy. What I have to figure out though is what other type of energy it uses. I'm suspecting bullshit or some other type biological energy source.

Well obviously they have a Quantum multi-core design, with eight cores each running XP Pro you get a TB of memory supported and the dialogue just adds it all up!
The whole comma/decimal point inconsitancy is a byproduct of the quantum design, which locks in actual characters used in a dialogue only when a user views the screen.
