Comment Brain Capacity (Score 1) 518
I would like to suggest a book titled The Age of Spiritual Machines. I dont remember the author's name off hand but perhaps someone else had read it and can back me up.
It is quite good and goes into a good bit of detail on the storage and calculation capacities of the human brain. In it the author calculates that the brain has about 10^14 cycles a second worth of calculations and about 10^14 bits of memory. I could be off by a few factors of 10 but hey whats a billion between friends? ;)
