There is no need for 128bit chips, now or ever.
64 bits is enough to address 18 million terabytes.
More than the number of atoms in the earth...
Wrong.
64 bits is barely enough to mmap every atom in one cubic millimetre of material, let alone the earth.
Remember, Moore's law is exponential. 32->64 bits will only take twice as long as 16->32 bits.
Expect 128 bit processors by 2015.
