*IBM experimenting with DNA to build chips*

I have to get used to being right all the time.
I posted a few days ago about organic computers *see re-posting below*,
yet some people in here had no clue what I was talking about, some laughed,
some even claimed I copied it from somewhere.

It turns out that there is indeed great interest on this .... see link

*IBM experimenting with DNA to build chips*
http://www.news.com/IBM-experimentin...0-20&subj=news

I wonder what they scoffers have to say now?

My original post:

I thought I would blabber a bit... This is for the people who like to ask
questions.. and have a curious mind... :-)

Moore claimed recently that CPU power will reach a barrier in 10-15 years.
Many of you may be aware of "moores law" that he had stated that every 24
months the power of CPU's (the amount of calculations they would be able to
do) would double.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moore's_law
This barrier Moore says now, would be true if we continue our path in this
direction of technology, which are microchips.
The problems arise are clearly about physics. Transistors are in fact made
of matter, thus atoms,
and through them passes the electric signal that is electromagnetic energy
with the speed of C (light speed). Pushing these chips to go faster produces
more heat, thus we have reached a speed limit of modern CPU at around 5 GHz
and even that is with super cooling.
Many talk about molecular computers or even quantum computers, that seem
very interesting...

But there is another way, the way nature works. If one studies the brain you
will see that it gets its processing power out of slow components (nerve
cells) that however have many connections with each other. Each neuron has
thousands of connections (called dendrites) with others, and all these
together form a "web" or vast cluster.
The number of "possible" connections of these neurons, in each human brain
is more than all the atoms of all the matter in the whole universe. This is
of course the number of POSSIBLE connections and not the true number of
connections in any given time. This is because the brain is not static,
rather it has "brain plasticity" the ability to adapt and learn and change
in real time.

It is my opinion that the new era of computers must follow the structure of
the brain if they want to achieve more processing power. And indeed piece of
the human brain the size of a dime, has more processing power than all the
computers in the world put together.

You may ask if so much power is in one brain why are some people so
stupid?..I believe differetly. Each person has infinite POTENTIAL. The
reason why this is not unleashed is a different matter. Why? The answer to
this is not simple and I wont get into that now.. because we are talking
about computers here not humans.

There is another problem here though... what software would be able to
handle this new hardware even if we had it? It will not be a digital
computer.. rather it would be a combination of digital and analog
computer... and this is so new that its hard for people to write code that
would be able to put these neuron nets into function.
There is good news. Single chip CPU are things of the past now. We have 4
core CPU now, and Intel has predicted that in 5 years we will have more than
200 cpu per chip.
The OS's and programs are NOT built to handle multi CPU very well. In fact
Vista stinks at it big time. Linux is far better .. MS knows this and is
working on this problem because its in our near future.

So the next generation of programs and OS will be able to handle multi core
CPU better, and that's much like having many nerve cells as cluster in a
small electronic brain. Its a start.

A new generation of robotic scientists now claim that we will have robots
and AI (artificial intelligent computers) that will be comparable to humans
in only 20 years.
I think this is obtainable. Computing power will be infinite very soon....
but it will need some out of the box thinking.

What would this new type of computers be like?

There is a way... for infinity in everything. Infinite bandwidth, processing
power, memory storage, and energy. I believe that it is within the abilty
for humans to reach infinity.

Are you flexible enough to imagine how this would be possible? I know it is
possible.. im just fathoming its ramifications.

You are so full of yourself. You Have to get used to being right all the
time. HA - Why not go out and buy a lottery ticket. If you are right all
the time, your purchase will be well spent.

Let us know the numbers when you get the ticket. After the drawing, post
back and say "goodbye" because you just won millions and will be retiring to
a tropical island with BABES bring you drinks all day long as you lounge in
the sun.

GET REAL man.

Your not right ... you read that stuff ... that's why you have a plethora of
identical "nerd news" links all the time.

Must suck to be you.

The Next Build Shall be RTM guys not any other builds unless MS decides to do one more build because of bugs before RTM RC2 build 5477 is the last build before RTM Drew Windows Vista 8 01-01-2007 09:39 PM
I meant RC2 Build 5744 is the last build unless ms find more bugs before the RTM build and gold version there only make another build if there more bugs and not ready for RTM Drew Windows Vista 4 01-01-2007 09:38 PM
